"DON'T COME TO CORNWALL!"

"DON'T COME TO CORNWALL!" - Doctor Phoebe Heveron, Treliske Hospital

We are pleased to bring to you all the following message from Dr. Heveron, one of our brave and committed doctors here in Cornwall.

These are her words:

"Hello all! Not something I want to post but as a doctor in Treliske I feel like I have to.

Please please please take covid seriously and stop all non essential contact with anyone.

It's going to be seriously bad in Cornwall and lots of people's lives will be at risk.

And second homers and holiday makers - PLEASE DON'T COME TO CORNWALL.

We're going to struggle with beds as it is without lots of extra people.

And you're likely to bring infection with you.

There will be plenty of other years to come on holiday.

Please please please think of everyone else and stay up country until the worst is over!"

Heidi Clode, a Nurse said this:

"Hear, hear, as a nurse in the trust, people are not taking it as serious as they ABSOLUTELY should.

People who should be self isolating are not.

Please stay at home at shout if you need anything. We're a tight community and can get through this but only if you stay at home and avoid unnecessary contact."
