Abstract :
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak has prompted an unprecedented upheaval in the provision of healthcare services globally. Following timely reporting from Italy,1 the United Kingdom also prepared for COVID-19 patients requiring hospital admission and intensive care. As part of this response, multiple issues surrounding staffing have become apparent. In this article, we discuss the experience at the North Middlesex Hospital in London of re-organising junior doctors.
