Positives are few & far between but I have one. Our daughter's friend is an A&E nurse with high dependency experience so she's been moved. It's a busy hospital in the West Midlands & she said they've been tested but it's bearable. The numbers are increasing but most are coming through the virus without massive intervention; unfortunately us layfolk see an oxygen canula & think life support, it's not, & she blames the media for too much sensationalism. She said that this is why she became a nurse, to help those in genuine need, a totally non-judgementl girl she said the only time she got exasperated was last weekend & this story is so wrong. A man was admitted, he was poorly but not critical, his family arrived with a McDonalds banquet & tried to get in to see him, apparently he had told them to bring him food as he was being taken into hospital. They weren't allowed on the ward, he got really nasty which meant doctors & security were called. One doctor recognised him & was brutally honest, told him that he'd been told to change his eating habits, given support & advice that had obviouly been a waste of time & energy. She said to ignore the media reports & any stories from anonymous medics, their HA has told them not to do this, & to understand that the majority of people who have got the virus, whether they're in hospital or at home, recover.
