Interesting



This was going round Arboleas this morning - I think we are about to get locked down again

OMG!!!  Until a couple of weeks ago we had no cases in my village (Somontin).  I think you could be right Judi!
I was gobsmacked down at H/O hospital this morning at how many cars were queueing to get tested for Covid.  It looked very organised but according to my interpreter, it hadn't been a few weeks back...

When I had to go to Urgencia for another scan last Friday I was horrified at how many ambulances were queueing up to take patients in. The staff were so under pressure it was just awful watching them dragging their feet with tiredness. All those I dealt with had smiles and couldn't do enough in such pressing times.

The queue to get tested for Covid was quite small when I arrived at H/O hospital yesterday but by the time I was leaving it was growing rapidly.  It wasn't for everyone, just those who had been referred by their DR and they seemed to have it well organised, which apparently had not been the case when they initially set it up...

When I first went to Urgencia 6 weeks ago before they could allow me to go by ambulance to Torrecadenas I had a Covid test. (Negative result in under an hour) Definatley not something I would volunteer for as it was most unpleasant and scary being surrounded by nurses dressed like spacemen and a huge white box for my vial to go in. It was then escorted through the corridors by a security man.
