NHS teams across Kent and Medway have worked extremely hard during the pandemic to care for Covid-19 patients and maintain other services. Work continues to address the backlog caused by the pandemic and pressure on all services from non-Covid issues remains very high. Thank you for your patience and support as all NHS teams work to provide everyone with the care they need.
For some high risk patients there are treatements for coronarvirus which can be given after a positive test, to reduce the risk of getting seriously ill.
