Clinical leadership and team dynamics: The attached infographic provides some insight on how London approach and manage their cardiac arrests in the COVID-19 environment.
Hoping we never experience the UK’s (or Europe/ USA etc) situation but their experiences can help us prepare.
While we wait for detailed information from the Australian Resuscitation Council regarding COVID-19, the following background information from the European Resuscitation Council may be of interest.

Good explanation of COVID-19 pathophysiology:
A large coalition of peak Australian health professional groups has come together to develop new “living guidelines” that will provide world-first, continually updated evidence-based guidance to clinicians caring for people with COVID-19.
This innovation has been developed under the auspices of the National COVID-19 Clinical Evidence Taskforce. Teams of researchers, experts and clinicians have been working around the clock to deliver national guidelines for the clinical care of people with COVID-19 across primary, acute and critical care settings.
Intubation for the COVID-19 patient – excellent podcast with accompanying education material – aimed at the ED situation but some excellent advice that can be carried over to the out-of-hospital environment.
