> the Nightingale covid hospitals have never been used... Because there's no staff to use them: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-55413831 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-55413831 > "We are already 'diluting' our skilled ICU nursing staff with less-well-trained volunteers." > As well as staffing, some have argued there is just not the equipment available to treat the sickest patients > "In some there are not even appropriate toilet facilities. They were built in a rush because we were desperate." Based on that info, my guess is these hospitals will only be used as a very last resort, possibly staffed with vets or NHS staff moved from elsewhere in the country for a short period... This is not a scenario that we should encourage or count on.
