Three cheers for the NHS staff who remain in their jobs while that's happening around them, and I mean the spread of the disease and the press looking for damning statistics.
That article refers to a whistle-blower story it reported on 12 March, which details a case which looks like it may have taken place in the very early days, when there was much less knowledge and equipment available. Easy pickings for a desperate reporter to make a scaremongering story really.
It would be wrong to suggest that hospitals aren't potentially risky, there was a comedian years ago who had a line about not going to hospitals as they are full of ill people. But it's a shame thta readers will come away from that article with yet more doom and gloom to spread on social media.
