I’m still confused by this. All the noises we’re hearing are that we’re near the peak, admissions are dropping etc. I do understand the Nightingales already built were good to have just in case, but why carry on with the others if they’re so confident we’re near the peak?
Is it possible that this first lockdown was to get these all in place, in anticipation of a much larger second peak? I think it’s dawning on people that we can’t hold this off until a vaccine is available next year and we will unfortunately have to get back to closer to business as usual (but with some social distancing) and just hope that the NHS manages once the capacity is in place? This seems logical to me but also could be tragic in terms of deaths.
