I was on-call yesterday in A+E. It was carnage.
We weren't hit, but had pulled all our services off-line; were taking emergency diverts from local hospitals that had been hit; and desparately finding ways of sending people to specialist centres for acute conditions we cannot deal with locally (without any image transfers).
It was kind of spectacular, as pretty much everything still happened without too many problems- probably suggesting our hospital hasn't moved on much (technology wise)since 1973.
