Families haven't seen loved ones in weeks and there seems to be no end in sight.
All is not lost - compare it to just a few weeks ago.
Mortality & infection rates climbing, the PM in hospital and fear was rampant.
The situation today looks far more positive. Never lose hope!
This weekend will be the worst for the NHS since 1948, but don't be discouraged - the lockdown measures are working.
It has never been easier to save a life. Just stay at home.
If we all keep it up the death toll will fall.
Self-discipline over the next few days will be key.
