'Remember him for the kind and compassionate hero he was'
Dr Chowdhury had made an urgent appeal to the PM that all NHS staff should have PPE
As the nation applauded the NHS last night, we remembered in particular the health service professionals who have lost their lives in the fight against coronavirus. Tributes have been paid to Dr Abdul Mabud Chowdhury, a consultant at the 91热爆rton Hospital in east London who died on Wednesday after testing positive for Covid 19. Back on the 18th March he had posted an urgent appeal on Facebook to the Prime Minister that every NHS health worker should have protective equipment - PPE.
