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 👇 https://t.co/xSwJOB24tL
If you want to know what living and working during the pandemic was like in an ICU, read this. Anthea is a fab nurse, taught me loads about ICU and just a wonderful, wonderful human being. @Anthea_Gilbert @CNOEngland @duncan_CNSE
Completely overwhelmed by the outpourings of support I have received today. Thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️☠️🍪 @TimesMagazine#BBCSaturdayLive @RevRichardColes @nikkibedi

We have all read so many extraordinary stories about our amazing NHS frontline workers and covid - but this one @anthea_gilbert is a must in @TimesMagazine today
>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.

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.
