Re: Surgeon anger at TV crew during Cameron visit
From the Telegraph
Quote:
However they had been told by the ward sister that they did not need to abide by the “bare below the elbows” rules because they were not coming into close contact with patients, unlike the MPs, who were at the hospital to announce the latest NHS reform plans.
A spokeswoman for Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust said: “Arrangements for today's visit were entirely consistent with the Trust's infection control policy.
“One individual member of staff expressed concern with one element of the infection control measures employed, but this was not a view shared by the wider team.”

The same surgeon said in 2007
Quote:
“I now have to half undress to see my patients, and have certainly not been provided with any protective uniform, any more than I was provided with a white coat,” he wrote in 2007.
“While I wholeheartedly endorse any measure to reduce the risk of infection, I cannot see this but as window dressing.
