Don’t think I’ve ever been so tired, was late off work the last three days.

My plantar fasciitis has returned, add in a very sore knee

About half the theatres are closed but thankfully we are still looking after day case patients

But there is no light at end of the tunnel

Covid patients are staying in ICU for 20-30+ days, meaning there is no likelihood of beds for patients requiring major surgery

So they may end up getting their surgery performed in private hospitals but does that mean the patients in those hospitals being cancelled

We do not discriminate, we will continue to care for vaxxed and unvaxxed patients. Same as we care for the obese, smokers, alcoholics, drug abusers

We don’t have a choice

But we are running on empty.

Somebody has to stop the march of this dreadful virus.

Be it modifying our behaviour slightly, staying home if we feel unwell. Maybe close schools for 2wks, encourage children to mask in school

Stop pandering to the hospitality industry until they insist on checking certs AND id

OR partners encourage their pregnant partners to get vaccinated?

What can you or your family do, to beat this bloody virus and get some semblance of normality back @CovidWomenVoice
