Thank goodness for the NHS, they are portrayed as the ones on a white charger and to add to the drama lets keep them short of PPE (something I'd never heard of before this crisis). put them on 'the front line', have histrionics from some of the nurses crying on social media claiming they are putting their lives on the line.
It is enevitable unfortunatly if we use analogies to warfair that some of the troops will fall, every life lost is a great loss to society no more and no less than that of a nurse or doctor, we should not be putting them on a pedastal as superhumans.
Lets not forget they are as mortal as the rest of us and require as much care and attention and equipment as would be given to well, 'front line troops', but not used as propaganda to keep the rest of us in line.
