Not sure that the main (and only big) hospital in the Highlands and Islands going to Code Black today is very good news, however.
Nope probably not. And it's a problem that will hit may hospitals in England I'm a couple if weeks.
It looks to be self isolations and planned annual leave that is the main problem.
And cases in Scotland are at a very high level. There is a lot less natural immunity although the repot does mention that the virus is in care homes which is never good news, even if the residents are vaccinated.
I will still continue to look on the bright side though. If the growth in daily case rates falls then it takes the pressure of the hospitals sooner.
I don't know remaining capacity is in other areas. It does make you wonder what her different tiers are for. Highlands and Islands are Tier 1 / 0. Glasgow and surrounding areas, Tier 2 but there is a greater hospital capacity.
