John’s colleagues later told Ms Gustilo that he had not been wearing adequate protective clothing, despite his work on the frontline of battling Covid-19. On Saturday, Watford General Hospital asked all patients - apart from women expecting to give birth - to stay away until further notice. The young nurse was born in the Philippines but moved to the UK as a child and was a British citizen. A spokeswoman for Watford General Hospital described him as “very popular” and said he would be “missed greatly”.
