Today marks a terrible milestone in the #COVID19 pandemic. In memory of the more than 100,000 people who have lost their lives to the virus, we have lit BMA House with a simple message. We will never forget.

These occupancy rates are shocking. If you need stats to understand the pressure that our hospitals are under in the SE then look no further. Story on the critcon levels in HSJ.

46,378 hospital staff off sick with COVID, while NHS overwhelmed - patient care will continue to suffer unless frontline healthcare workers are urgently vaccinated
Exclusive: Hospitals left short-staffed with half of all sickness absence now linked to Covid across England independent.co.uk/news/health/co… #Covid19UK
Instead of clapping if everyone would simply follow the rules face, space, hands self isolate if symptomatic with COVID (yes even a mild cough) and use the NHS sensibly and courteously that would be a much better sign of appreciation. #clapforheroes #clapforcarers @SkyNews
A very personal Tweet. It’s not just hospital staff who are feeling the pressure. Primary care is under incredible strain. We’re not as glamorous as ED or ITU but we’re juggling vaccination with the normal, uncapped day job. It is breaking some of us. I’m one. Don’t forget us.
