RE: Over 49,000 cases today….19 Oct 2021 14:32
Abrooking stated...."Hospitals aren't really being overwhelmed these days either. The number in hospital remains relatively low and steady. The rising cases are down to rising test numbers and don't seem to be correlating with hospitalisations due to infections occurring in people and/or the vaccinated".
NHS Providers stated.....NHS Providers, speaking for all NHS hospitals, mental health, community and ambulance services in England, sent the letter to Prime Minister Boris Johnson today (27 July) – alongside Chancellor Rishi Sunak and Health Secretary Sajid Javid.
The letter explains that the NHS is currently facing overwhelming pressure, similar to January, 2021. In the first month of the year, the NHS faced an immense wave of COVID hospitalisations and deaths. At one point in January, over 1,000 people were dying everyday. The NHS faced a backlog in other services, with cancer care being delayed by the influx.
You couldnt be more wrong!
