There is another factor to add to the damning COVID stats in England and that covers the absence of lotsa European nurses. I picked up this info from a letter by a retired SRN that highlighted the fact that Johnson and his ministers ignored this "nurses' absence due to Brexit" as they fail to get a grip on this pandemic. During the run-up to Brexit, European nurses were "encouraged" to go back home by threat of having their registration to work in this country revoked after Britain left the EU. Now we are being told by NHS leaders that the current crisis is greatly exacerbated by a shortage of qualified nursing staff.
This inconvenient truth is never mentioned by Johnson, Hancock or Patel and others as they stumble from one botch up to the next. BUT HEY, IT WAS THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE EH!!
