COVID-19: Provision of intensive care beds

Summary

This interview with intensivist and CEO of the the UK Sepsis Trust, Ron Daniels, shown on the Victoria Derbyshire programme, states the '... the UK cannot increase its ICU capacity "rapidly enough" to deal with levels of coronavirus patients''

Fears are growing for the safety of patients who will be contracting the virus, some of who will need intensive care, but there is not enough beds or trained staff to care for them appropriately.
