A NHS worker was explaining that on a long shift , one could change and throwaway 4 sets of PPE, times that by the 425k ish frontline nurses and doctors in the UK and becomes an astonishing supply demand and logistical nightmare, never mind the cost .

The numbers don't include other key workers and care workers, or the rest of the world demand .

The logistics behind this is remarkable, as is its safe disposal , as us its cost.

I wonder if environmentalists will ask the question soon ???
