NOT WHAT PATIENT ORDERED

My nephew tested positive for Covid-19 as did his mother and father so they are all isolating in the same house.

He is not very well and phoned 111. The out-of-hours doctor phoned him last night and said he would send a prescription over for him.

I went to the pharmacy to pick it up as I live nearby they had no trace of it so I went to the doctors to see if they had received it they had not.

What is going on? If you are isolating and need to see a doctor, best of luck. They can’t even get a prescription to you.
