Six NHS Trusts across England are fitting pop-up isolation rooms in their hospitals.
Royal Derby Hospital, part of University Hospitals of Derby and Burton NHS Foundation Trust, has just installed 25 of the pop-up bays in their medical assessment unit, to separate patients until they receive the results of a Covid-19 test.
The temporary rooms which are stored in a compact wheeled cart, can be erected in around five minutes to provide an individual room to isolate patients.
Known as ‘Redirooms’, they were the brainchild of an Australian nurse who was concerned about keeping infectious patients on the ward until a single room was available.

Republican Governors Around the Country Are Failing as Badly as the President* Did
In Texas, South Dakota, and beyond, the COVID-19 situation is deteriorating.
One million people in Texas have contracted COVID-19. One. Million. People.
They are running out of hospital beds. They are running out of room in their morgues. They are running out of room in the refrigeration trucks. They are shipping bodies around the state because the funeral homes are swamped. And, in El Paso, with all this, a group of restaurateurs is suing a local judge for "exceeding his authority" in ordering a county-wide shutdown. The attorney general of the state of Texas has joined that lawsuit.
