Hospital boss relieved at falling Covid numberspublished at 17:40 Greenwich Mean Time 25 March 2021
The chief executive of the Royal Stoke and County hospitals has said there is a sense of relieft as coronavirus patient numbers fall.
Tracy Bullock said they're currently treating about 50 patients across both hospitals, with seven in critical care.
Ms Bullock said staff have "faced problems that have required all of us to think very differently" while they were "dealing with a highly infectious disease that none of us had ever encountered".
And she said the trust had been forced to redesign the hospitals, to reduce the risk of infection.
