Week 10 on the covid wards 36:29

Eighteen-year-old Marium fell ill at the same time as her brothers and sisters – whilst they all recovered she just got worse and a week into the illness she was struggling to breathe and couldn’t get out bed. An ambulance was called and when doctors assessed her they considered putting her straight onto a ventilator because her oxygen levels were so low. In the end the decision was made to attach her to a smaller, less intrusive breathing device and to place her one of the treatments being tested under the national Recovery trial. It was a difficult time for Marium and her whole family: as she arrived at hospital an ambulance was on its way to her grandfather, Mohammed, who was briefly placed in a bed near her. He also had Covid-19, as did Marium’s Mum, Saiqu, who was also admitted to the ward later that same night. Over the next few days, as Marium’s condition started to improve, she was unaware that her grandfather was getting worse. When he died, her family kept the news from her, fearing it would set back her recovery. The news was only broken to her when she was well enough to be discharged and she’s now coming to terms with her grief and the ongoing physical impact of her illness. The way we treat those with Covid-19 looks set to change, with doctors looking ahead to a time, not too far off, when anyone with early symptoms will be able to drive to a testing centre, get swabbed and have an instant result and then receive a prescription for a combination of effective drugs before their symptoms take hold. The trial that Marium is part of will report later in summer and in The NHS Front Line, Winifred Robinson also hears from Mark, a keen cyclist and the first patient in the UK on a trial aimed at seeing if early treatment might work at stopping the worst impact of the virus later on in the infection. With the death toll from this pandemic still rising across the world, clinical trials that would have taken years to approve and carry out are being done in weeks. This series comes from the Bradford Royal Infirmary, with recordings made by Dr John Wright, who works there. He’s an epidemiologist and has helped prepare and cope with a huge influx of patients. The hospital layout has been redesigned to try to keep Covid and non-Covid patients’ apart, but without a testing system that delivers results within hours it’s proving hard to rule out the risks of infection taking place. This is becoming more of an issue as the hospital increasingly opens up for non-urgent care.…

Doctors in the UK are developing new ways of helping patients as they leave the hospital covid wards. Many will require medical follow up as they continue to recover at home and a new system provides that via virtual wards; with nurses in the community overseen by staff in the hospital to ensure the best care possible. It is an effective way of helping patients and also family and friends, many of whom are worried that their loved ones might still be infected and capable of transmitting the virus. This series comes from the Bradford Royal Infirmary, with recordings made by Dr John Wright, who works there. He is an epidemiologist and as he helps the hospital prepare for and cope with a huge influx of patients, he is also searching for answers about Covid-19. He is keen to examine how the virtual wards are working in practise and whether they hold the key for a new model of health care, one where many doctors work more remotely but where patient care is not compromised at all. The recordings follow two elderly patients coming home from the covid wards: one has the support from a granddaughter who has moved in to give round the clock care, but who is fearful about being exposed because she has a compromised immune system. The other patient is managing alone and struggling with the most basic tasks, from opening cans to turning on taps and even being able to unlock her front door. Her wrist is weak from a previous injury and neighbours who before would call in and help are too worried about the risks of infection. Winifred Robinson presents these recordings in a series which charts the response of NHS staff and patients on the Covid-19 wards. The number of cases is falling but there are still concerns and doctors have seen a small rise that could be associated with celebrations marking the 75th anniversary of VE day. It was an occasion for street gatherings and although people at first kept their distance, once the alcohol started to flow some lost their inhibitions and launched into risky contact with each other, including a number of fights.…

As the death toll continues to rise across the world, doctors are keen to learn from the spread of the virus so far and particularly how it took hold in large gatherings, with huge ripple effects across wider communities. With England on the brink of easing restrictions, the patterns of infection hold important lessons that might help keep people safe. In Britain, sporting events, concerts and even funerals held weeks ago have caused local spikes and the ripple effects continue, with patients still recovering in British hospitals. Another main difficulty facing doctors is breaking down the suspicion behind a series of fake social media reports spreading in BAME communities. In some parts of the country there are claims that non-white patients will be left to die in hospital and one doctor reveals the toll that hurtful messages is having. Dr Fozia Hayat has told police about the impact of hateful messages that falsely state she has blood on her hands. In truth she and her colleagues are working with some of the patients most seriously affected by Covid-19. This series comes from the Bradford Royal Infirmary, with recordings made by Dr John Wright, who works there. He is an epidemiologist and as he helps the hospital prepare for and cope with a huge influx of patients, he is also searching for answers about Covid-19. He is receiving important clues about when the first cases might have reached the UK and about what makes some patients far more susceptible to the impact of the virus. Winifred Robinson presents Dr Wright's recordings in which we hear from frontline NHS staff and from many patients on the Covid-19 wards. Dr Fozia Hayat is particularly upset that abusive messages continued into Ramadan, a time when it is even more important to be kind and generous towards each other. Instead she and others have been told that they will be held responsible in the court of Allah - some of the malicious messages go on to state that covid does not even exist.…

The prospect of keeping families apart at the time of death is so new to medical staff in the UK that it is hard to process alongside everything else that this pandemic has thrown into turmoil.

As increasing numbers of Covid-19 patients are needing medical care the efforts of doctors and nurses are being hampered by sickness in their own ranks. The spread of the virus appears to be hitting the very teams dealing with those made so ill by it and the lack of testing and worries about protective equipment are hindering their efforts.

This is a race to help those most at risk from this virus and people are united in doing their best to help those in the local community who need them more than ever before.

The series unfolds in real time, giving you a week by week account of what is happening on the hospital wards.
