One is busy and kept going the other is extremely busy. My ex nursing colleagues, in various hospitals around the country, tell me they are kept going due to covid related sickness admissions and staff with covid out sick .

Beaumont is the busiest, my neighbour works there and there a&e is not overwhelmed either. In fact she works in the transplant dept and sadly no transplants can take place. But she has not been deployed.

To even go and get a drink of water requires you to take off the PPE and then suit up again.
