Prime Minister @RishiSunak has set out his 15-year plan to recruit 3000,000 more NHS staff in England. But what do those who already work for the NHS think about the new plans? @Doctorveena | @Anthea_Gilbert | @mancunianmedic | @Dani Sinha | @ClaudiaLizaTV #5news

At the height of the pandemic, critical care nurse Anthea Allen kept a diary of life on the front line. It’s a frightening reminder of recent history 👇 thetimes.co.uk/article/insid…

>600 hospitalised with Covid, and one third of ICU beds occupied with the disease. If you’re not vaccinated, you are FAR more likely to be hospitalised and admitted to ICU with Covid, so please get vaccinated. #covid19ireland #covid19 #cartoon

In ICU, we love our job, but we are happier if people don’t need our services. Getting a vaccination is the best way to avoid the need for ICU for yourself and other people.
