The famous supplier of plumbing, electrical and D.I.Y. stuff has removed all of its laminated catalogues that were previously on display, and some staff are wearing those sweaty black plastic gloves. Also the short pencils are no more. Also there is a one metre distance rule being enforced.

    John Peckham:

    I have seen an Army field hospital and it was manned(and womanned) by TA doctors and nurses. So whilst the army has some accommodation the staff already have full time jobs with the NHS. The government to save money a closed the military hospitals and made the majority of the staff redundant. So the 3 armed services have limited medical resources. 




    Good point about the TA personnel. Regulars all work in the NHS these days, so they cannot be used to boost the numbers. (There have been various redundancy programmes over the years, but "the majority" may be a bit strong.)


    There are, however, hoards of staff officers. Whether an admiral or a general could remember any useful clinical skills is another matter entirely. ?
