LONDON - Britain’s Prince William called on the public to heed government advice on how to stop the spread of coronavirus on Friday as he hailed health workers battling the outbreak.
Everyone had a part to play, said William, second-in-line to the throne, after a visit with his wife Kate to a call center in Croydon, south London, where ambulance staff handle non-emergency “111” calls to the National Health Service . “But it’s at times like this when we realize just how much the NHS represents the very best of our country and society – people from all backgrounds and walks of life with different experiences and skills, pulling together for the common good.”One London hospital declared a “critical incident” on Friday due to shortage of intensive care beds, according to media reports, and staff at the Croydon centre have been taking at least five times as many calls as normal.
“All of us have a part to play if we’re going to protect the most vulnerable,” William said. “That means acting on the latest expert advice, staying home if we or those we live with have symptoms, and avoiding non-essential contact to help reduce the spread of the virus.”
