The situation in the NHS is very serious and the number of people in ICU is rising rapidly.
We are improving our knowledge on how best to treat people in ICU thanks to research, but hundreds of people a day are currently dying.
We must all take the lockdown very seriously.

London: 242 cases per 100 000 moves to tier 3
Wales: 450 cases per 100 000 (up to 2100 some areas). Worried people won’t do as they are told, so not worth trying. We need a better explanation than that. #COVID19
