I had some numbers quoted to me yesterday of 2 x crew requiring ventilation and 1 x crew fatality as a result of operating in an aircraft transporting Covid19 patients within the UK. I am interested in this from a risk assessment point of view and did a cursory attempt at fact changing these details but drew a blank. Can anyone support the above with reputable data?
Not UK, but sadly a spanish hems pilot in babcock spain has sadly lost is life in the line of duty after contracting covid-19
