NHS Lanarkshire doctors warn hospitals beyond capacity
The surge in case numbers has been attributed to a more infectious Omicron sub-variant, BA.2.
Meanwhile there were 2,322 hospital patients with the virus on Thursday - the fourth day in a row that Covid patient numbers hit a record high.Despite the sharp rise in patients in hospital with Covid, fewer of them are requiring intensive care treatment than in the past. Dr Jane Burns, executive medical director, said many were patients waiting several hours to be seen in emergency departments, and urged people to consider whether A&E is the best place for them to seek healthcare."This has been the case for a number of weeks and the situation is not easing. In fact, this week hospitals across Scotland including Lanarkshire have seen a record number of Covid patients.
She urged people to think of alternatives to the emergency department if their condition is not critical or life-threatening.
