Coronavirus: Madrid’s medical heroes in the fight of their lives

'We're not heroes; we're health workers,' insists Hernando Trujillo, a doctor tackling the coronavirus emergency in the working-class south of the capital. The hospital has capacity for 1,300 beds and, at the height of the Covid-19 epidemic, close to 1,000 were being used to treat coronavirus patients. 'There was almost no transition. It was really quiet and then suddenly a mad rush. The collapse came in a day,' says Laura Andújar, a 37-year-old emergency nurse.
