The
level
of
infection
amongst
residents
of
all
ages
in
bcp
is
doubling
roughly
every
five
days,
which
is
remarkable
and
so
much
faster
than
at
any
point.
Previously.
Rnhs
is
under
significantly
more
pressure
than
at
any
point.
During
its
pandemic,
many
of
our
care
homes
are
suffering
outbreaks,
meaning
the
vulnerable
are
at
risk.
People
cannot
visit
their
loved
ones,
and
hospitals
cannot
safely
discharge
patients
to
environments
where
they
will
get
the
daily
care
they
need.
A
People
are
dying
from
covert
19
right
here
in
our
towns.
It
could
be
your
neighbor,
your
friend,
your
relative,
so
please
stay
at
home,
don't
meet
other
people
if
you
don't
have
to
don't
shop
for
non-essentials,
if
you
must
go
out
for
the
specific
permitted
reasons,
stay
at
least
two
meters
away
from
those
you
don't
live
with,
wear
a
face
covering
and
continue
with
obsessive
hand
hygiene.
A
A
It
is
without
doubt
the
toughest
time
in
the
crisis,
but
the
end
is
in
sight.
The
vaccine
roll
out
tells
us
that
by
mid-february
the
most
vulnerable
will
have
been
vaccinated
and
we
can
hope
to
enjoy
a
really
full
summer,
but
the
time
is
now
and
we
must
renew
our
drive
to
save
lives,
protect
those
who
love
protect.
Those
who
don't
even
know,
protect
the
nhs
and
save
lives
stay
at
home.
Thank.
