Coronavirus Risk Remains Acute For Britain's First Responders

PORTSMOUTH, ENGLAND - MAY 05: (EDITOR'S NOTE: Patient gave consent to be photographed.) Mike Carr (L) of the Patient Transport Services of South Central Ambulance Services looks towards an elderly non-COVID-19 patient as she is moved from hospital to a care home on May 05, 2020 near Portsmouth, England. As the list of recognised Covid-19 symptoms grows, paramedic crews like those with the South Central Ambulance Service are forced to treat every patient as being a potential case, often requiring specialised personal protective equipment (PPE). Paramedics now routinely don what the NHS refers to as Level 2 PPE, like face masks and disposable aprons. Cases with patients potentially needing airway procedures require Level 3 PPE, such as full-face visors and long-sleeved surgical gowns. While the infection rate is falling, and government officials are discussing ways to relax the country's quarantine measures, Covid-19 still creates everyday risks for paramedics and other first responders.
