As London marks five years since the confirmation of its first Covid case, the London Ambulance Service (LAS) pays tribute to its victims. Over 230,000 people died in the UK due to the pandemic, which drastically affected daily life, forcing the city into lockdown. LAS shared a heartfelt message on social media, emphasizing remembrance and gratitude toward frontline workers who adapted to challenging circumstances. CEO Daniel Elkeles highlighted the emotional and physical toll on staff while emphasizing their dedication to protecting Londoners during the crisis that began with the first reported case in February 2020.
We will never forget all those who lost their lives during the pandemic.
It's been physically and emotionally exhausting for our staff and volunteers, and we owe them huge thanks.
The capital became an epicentre of the virus, which caused the city to shut down completely.
There are special people in our lives that never leave us, even after they are gone.
