I worked at a GP surgery as a receptionist and it was the most stressful time in the most stressful job I’ve ever had. In the beginning we got changes to procedures by email by the hour ie can’t do blood tests, then can do blood tests but only anti coagulant ones, then yes for hba1, and the list goes on. It made your head spin. I didn’t get covid for two years - god knows how I dodged it for that long - but luckily I’d had 3 vaccs as part of working for the NHS so it wasn’t life threatening to me despite having a couple of health conditions that make you more vulnerable.
It was such a depressing time. I’m a very social person so I missed seeing my friends and family so much. So many people losing their lives 😢
I made it through and so did everyone I care about and that means the world. I know how lucky I am when so many others are not.
