Today we have 263 patients in our beds who have tested positive for COVID-19, including 22 in intensive care. This means we have more COVID-19 patients in our hospitals now than at the peak of the pandemic in mid-April. Over the next 48 hours we expect the number of people in critical care to increase.

On Tuesday last week there were 148 patients who tested positive for COVID which demonstrates how quickly the virus is spreading. Not only is the number of COVID cases increasing but so is the rate of increase.

The majority of admissions over the weekend has been older people with respiratory conditions. The infection rate for over-59s has increased from 165 per 100,000 last Saturday to 269 per 100,000.

Please follow the local rules and restrictions to help reduce the spread of the virus and protect our NHS staff so that we can care for others.

‘Being a Paramedic has given me a greater understanding of people and the variety of different things that people go through every single day. I love using my skills and knowledge daily to make a difference to people’s lives. Being in a position to help others, in their moment of need, is an experience like no other.’

Gloucestershire paramedic Becky shares why she loves working at South Western Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust. 💚
