Britain is to open a 4,000-bed field hospital at London's giant ExCeL exhibition centre as part of government plans to treat coronavirus cases, Health Secretary Matt Hancock said on Tuesday. NHS Nightingale would open next week "comprising two wards each of 2,000 people" and be run by the National Health Service with the support of the military "to make sure we have the capacity we need so everybody can get the support they need", he added. phz/jwp/bmm
