Inside a Covid ward at King's College Hospital in London

The video discusses the challenges faced on a COVID ward, including the severity of patient cases and staffing issues. Despite improvements in treatments, the ward is under pressure due to staff isolations and the need for flexibility in roles. Most patients admitted are unvaccinated, leading to worse outcomes, while some vaccinated patients, especially those without recent boosters, also face severe illness. The video highlights the importance of vaccination, particularly for vulnerable patients, though it is not entirely preventative.
