Opening hospital non covid
Start hospitals offering routine surgery
Why the contribution is important
Have been left since February with bowel cancer and no surgery date as yet, just a letter from the hospital saying they aren’t doing surgery because of covid

All hospitals including GJNH have had COVID-19 positive patients so it is not possible to have any designated as COVID-19-free, some may be seen as relatively clean if they have no IP beds - e.g the Glasgow ACHs but then they cannot undertake major surgeries....
The Louisa Jordan Hospital of course has no operating facilities or sophisticated diagnostics so no use to help with waiting lists.

I know they have the Louisa Jordan in Glasgow but I would like to see something in the East Coast. Could the uncompleted work on the new Sick Kids building not be completed urgently and that site used as a Covid hospital?
I'm in the Shielded Group and wouldn't even want to visit my GP never mind a hospital. Looking at the figures it seems a vast percentage of the population share this concern.

Thus all staff, medics etc are totally separate and not in contact with staff dealing with non covid patients.
