Box 1.4 Story of Consultant Urologist, Mr Abdul Chowdhury.
ОглавлениеAbdul Mabud Chowdhury was a consultant urologist at Homerton University Hospital in East London. After training in Bangladesh and working in Zimbabwe, he moved to the United Kingdom to work in the NHS.
At an early stage of the Covid‐19 pandemic, Mr Chowdhury appealed to the UK prime minister for ‘appropriate PPE and remedies’ to ‘protect ourselves and our families’.
Five days later, he was admitted to hospital and subsequently died of Covid‐19.
Dr Chaand Nagpaul, chairman of the British Medical Association (BMA), said it was ‘so tragic’ that the 53‐year‐old had died after issuing a warning about a lack of PPE.
