UK doctor praises NZ's COVID-19 approach, says it's too late for them

A UK doctor has praised New Zealand's COVID-19 approach on locking down the country early and says he's disappointed with the situation in the UK. With more than 700,000 confirmed cases so far, Dr Asad Khan, Respiratory Physician at Manchester Hospital says it's been a 'very very difficult time'. 'We have quite a number of acute hospitals here and some of them are already full,' he told The Project on Wednesday. 'We have fewer than the normal number of doctors that we'd have at this time of the year, and that's because a number of them are off with COVID or they are having to self isolate because they have been in contact with COVID.'
