British clinics on the verge of collapse – Wales imposes two-week lockdown

What is still feared in this country is now becoming a reality in Wales: The increasing number of corona cases are forcing the authorities to largely paralyze public life. In other parts of the UK, healthcare is already reaching its limits. The British part of Wales is introducing a two-week lockdown due to the corona pandemic. This is necessary to slow down the spread of the pathogen and to save the health system from collapse, said the head of Wales, Mark Drakeford, in Cardiff. The strict contact restrictions should apply from October 23 to November 9. Those who can have to go to work at home during this time. Leisure activities and tourism are then prohibited. Only shops with essential goods are allowed to open, according to the information, pubs and restaurants remain closed. Meetings of different households – whether indoors or outdoors – are also prohibited.

Scientific advisors have long been urging Prime Minister Boris Johnson to order a national lockdown like in the spring. Not only Wales, but also the north of England, parts of Scotland and Northern Ireland are severely affected by the pandemic. But Johnson wants to wait with a view to the economic consequences. According to statistics, more than 43,000 people infected with corona have died with Covid-19 in Great Britain, which has almost 67 million inhabitants. However, a high number of unreported cases is expected; there is a lack of testing. In parts of the UK, the increasing number of infections is already pushing the health system to its limits. In the Greater Manchester area, according to a media report, the first clinics can no longer accept Covid 19 patients. Twelve hospitals are already full, quoted the Guardian from an internal document of the National Health Service (NHS). Mayor Andy Burnham once again asked Premier Johnson for more financial support for the people and companies in the area.
