  My friend the frontline doctor says the main problem about getting the NHS back to normal as Covid lifts is ‘the now-embedded Covid culture of the management class at local level’. This can include GPs. One example the doctor gives is the case of a friend’s infant daughter whom the GP would not see indoors because she had had no PCR test. She was very unwell. Her father was told to take her to a freezing car park for a swab, and had to wait 48 hours for the result, while she became iller. She eventually saw the GP 72 hours after the appointment was first requested, by which time she was septic with severe tonsillitis that came close to obstructing her airway. As his friend said: ‘We are now in a world where if my daughter is ill I have to prove she is not ill before the doctor will see her.’
