Major problem is the lack of trained/qualified staff in most sectors.

The temporary hospitals put together at the start of the covid crisis are long dismantled and the spaces used returned to exhibitions etc.

I'd like to know what is the situation in other countries?

Also, why can't they use the Nightingale Hospitals which were built to accommodate patients. At least they could solve the bed-blocking problem, moving people on who are ready to leave so the sick can be admitted.
