Access into these units is extremely restricted, but I was allowed to spend a 12-hour shift with the overnight ICU team at Hairmyres Hospital in East Kilbride. Dr Austin Rattray leads the overnight ICU team of 30 nursing staff and clinical support workers, three consultants and two junior doctors. "Our understanding of the disease is rapidly progressing," says Dr Rattray. There's been remarkable local, national and international sharing of information which has allowed us to learn rapidly from each other, and prepare for whatever's next."
