During lockdown - early May- I was admitted by Ambulance directly to an emergency assessment unit. At the time we were all obsessed at home with disinfecting everything and keeping our distance. Yet during my 2 days on the unit I saw patients lined up on chairs immediately next to one another. Then a patient would go off somewhere for tests, meanwhile someone else would take up the chair with no disinfecting in between. Doors were opened by many various hands.
I returned home really concerned that I may have picked up COVID, whilst in hospital.
(several months later I observed much more rigor at my hairdressers.)
