Single mother trainee nurse dies covid leaving two children no family uk

THIS is the dramatic moment a quick-thinking mum saves her toddler from choking to death - as the family’s TV night takes an unexpected turn. A family of five was captured on CCTV footage while sitting watching TV in their lounge room, when the toddler, who was sitting on the floor, appeared to put something in his mouth.

He could announce a string of other measures to help the economy recover - though some of these, like schemes to push people back into shops and restaurants, may not come until later. And aides promise he'll be "honest" about the need to claw back £280bn of Covid spending - as corporation tax could be hiked and income tax allowances … [Read more...] about When is the 2021 Budget – and what will be in it?

For the medics on the frontline of the pandemic life will never be the same again. They have witnessed whole families fight for their lives, seen loved ones torn apart and dealt with staff on the brink of breakdown - and all while enduring their own personal battles. Now, a new film, by Emergency Medicine Doctor, Saleyha Ahsan, exposes the true toll that the pandemic has taken on workers at her hospital, Ysbyty Gwynedd, in Bangor, through the destructive second wave of the virus between November and February. And she wants to show the heartbreaking stories of staff and patients to ensure their struggles haven't gone in vain. Saleyha says: “I feel that I have changed forever. I'm more cynical, I've got level of anxiety that I never used to have before. “We might have the Covid pandemic now but I think we're going to have a mental health pandemic following hot on its heels.” One doctor, Nathan Pictor, is all too aware of how true this is, as he broke down while working on … [Read more...] about Horrifying reality of hospital workers in the pandemic exposed in TV show
