An intensive care nurse on the frontline of the coronavirus pandemic has warned young people are being struck down by the virus and said seeing people flouting coronavirus lockdown rules felt like a 'slap in the face'.
Joanne Morrell says 99% of the patients she has seen at Huddersfield Royal Infirmary (HRI) have coronavirus, as hospitals across the country struggle to cope with the growing number of COVID-19 cases.
Speaking on Good Morning Britain today the frontline nurse warned: 'We're seeing young people, normally fit and well, who are being struck down and are now unwell.
