George Floyd and I were both arrested for allegedly spending a counterfeit $20 bill. For George Floyd, a man my age, with two kids, it was a death sentence. For me, it is a story I sometimes tell at parties. That, my friends, is White privilege.

@CovidSurg @MrRJEgan Would also be interesting to see numbers symptomatic vs numbers tested vs numbers proven. Suspect UK would have a poor symptoms:testing:appropriate PPE ratio. Hearing stories of patients being denied vital operations to save PPE.

2. DEPLOY THE FULL PLAYBOOK. Lombardy (10M) and Veneto (5M) both closed shops and did social distancing. Veneto added testing, active contact tracing, good controls to protect health care & other essential workers, and home care for most cases. Lombardy had 5K deaths; Veneto 287.

[Thoracic Surgeon - Joel Dunning @joeldunning]

I have changed from being a consultant thoracic surgeon to an ICU Nurse to help with the intense pressures on our ICU now. If like me you are in the NHS but working less to free up space for COVID patients, can I encourage you to #put-in-a-shift in your ICU to help them out !

[Professor Tom Bourne @proftombourne]

Stopping COVID19 spread in hospitals is vital - which means you have to stop healthcare workers being a vector = adequate PPE
