'All the graphs and charts from experts are pointless when it's your own flesh and blood'

All the graphs and charts produced by the experts become pointless when your own fresh and blood have been told they have the coronavirus.

Last week our daughter was admitted to Northampton General and on Monday it was confirmed that she had this disease. Now all we can hope is that the skill of the staff can save her.

Our household has taken the controls instigated by the Government very seriously and for weeks only I have gone out for either food or collecting prescriptions from the chemists. The only time otherwise I and the wife have gone outside our property is the visit our allotments which are sited at the end of our garden and accessed via a gate which has allowed us to avoid contact with other persons. Yet we are now in the hands of the skill of the NHS to save our daughter. Only time will tell if they are successful.
