DESPERATE NURSE'S EASTER PLEA TO BRITAIN

|April 11, 2020
HEARTBREAKING MESSAGE FOR BRITONS TO STAY HOME THIS WEEKEND
AN INTENSIVE care nurse is “going through hell” and fears for her safety on the frontline of the Covid-19 battle.
Bruised, battered and exhausted, Aimee Goold yesterday begged people to “remember this face” and stay at home over the Easter weekend. The damage to Aimee’s face is from the pressure of wearing personal protective equipment over a 13-hour shift.
The post from Aimee, who works at Doncaster and Bassetlaw Teaching Hospital, was shared online more than 132,000 times. Many called her a hero.
It came as the UK saw another 980 hospital deaths, the highest single day total since the pandemic began, taking Britain’s coronavirus fatalities to 8,958.
Health Secretary Matt Hancock said: “We never forget that behind this number, behind each one, is a name, a loss and a family that will never be the same again.
“We all share a responsibility to tackle this virus, first and foremost by staying at home.”
