I wish ours were more like that

Quite proud to see the kind of people who run our health system. ¡Gracias!

Missing outstanding Spanish health professionals in the UK already

Storm Filomena is beating the crap outta Madrid. Not only is Madrid the epicenter to Covid in Spain, now they contend with the worst snow storms in a decade.

Wow. Good people

I Love Global Warming.

Guardian: 'With roads blocked and commuter trains cancelled, nursing assistant Raúl Alcojor walked 14km to make it to his shift at a hospital on the outskirts of the city. “Morally I couldn’t stay at home,” he said, citing colleagues that had been working for more than 24 hours.'

Remember a few years back in UK we had bad snow some guy who worked in a hospital walked like 20 miles to get to his work. That was cool.

Who knew cross-country skis might come in handy in central Spain? Nope, nothing wrong with the climate at all, move along people, nothing to see here.

It could almost be London mid week

Sure they do 😜

Man like Jesus
