A doctor and amateur photographer has shared intimate and illuminating images taken on the coronavirus front lines.
Karen Chui, an orthopaedic registrar at Barking, Havering and Redbridge University Hospitals NHS Trust, joined her intensive care unit colleagues to document the frontline during the second wave of the pandemic.
“When Covid admissions rose dramatically in December, the severity of the situation in critical care units across the country was understood by all NHS workers,” Karen explained.
