removed from their home. Uxbridge Road in Shepherd's Bush was closed for an hour as ambulance, fire brigade and police attended, extracting the patient by crane from a three story apartment building in West London. PPE (personal protective equipment) was in evidence, with the fire brigade using full face respirators normally reserved for firefighting. A police officer commented the Metropolitan police force are issued only with rubber gloves. Ambulance workers decontaminated the scene and reusable equipment before moving on.
