Tributes have poured in for healthcare staff who are among the latest confirmed coronavirus deaths.
Those who have died include people who worked in a range of roles, from porters and domestic workers, to doctors and nurses.
The husband of mother-of-two Josephine Peter, a nurse at Southport and Formby District General Hospital, described his wife as "my heroine" after her death of Saturday.
Trish Armstrong-Child, chief executive of Southport and Ormskirk Hospital NHS Trust, said: “Josephine’s husband, Thabo, told me she was passionate, hardworking, always putting others before herself. She was ‘my heroine’, he said.
“Our thoughts are with Josephine’s family at this difficult time and we offer them our sincere condolences.”
The South African nurse, who is known as Josephine Matseke (Manini) on a GoFundMe page set up to help with repatriation and funeral costs, was described as someone who would “always go that extra mile”.
