Coronavirus doctor's diary: 'People think it's over, but it's not'
Dr John Wright of Bradford Royal Infirmary talks to two colleagues who have not been home since the early days of the pandemic to avoid the risk of carrying the infection to their families. One says she fears that cases will begin to rise because members of the public, unlike medical staff, seem too eager to"move on".
Healthcare workers are five or six times more likely to be infected than the general public, so they also have a much greater risk of infecting others. Living as a civilian in a house with a healthcare worker can be bad for your health. Kirsten Sellick is a junior doctor who moved out of a family home to live in hospital accommodation. I see her on sunny days reading outside the hospital - the car park is her lockdown garden retreat.After lockdown I was offered the chance to move into the hotel to keep my family safe and I took it. That was 30 March.
It's really sad. It's funny because people did love the NHS and clapped and everything - people really cared. But then it's kind of people want to move on. I don't necessarily agree that we should be called heroes, but I think that that might have all been forgotten about now.
