I had been showered with gifts and cakes from work colleagues, as I prepared to do a little job-crafting and switch back to more GP-ing and less laptopping. I am catching up on various emails and tasks that I have been ignoring for the past few weeks. Nothing has been written in it since then. That was a good week. It was of course true.

Will a night nurse or a GP go into her house to help her to die well, wearing a full hazmat suit? Ideally, one would err on the side of caution to reduce the risks of transmission to an absolute minimum.
