Anybody Ever Seen a Doctor or Nurse Wearing Niqab?
They're not, apart from an outburst from a minor Tory MP, Dr Sarah Wollaston, but the media are stirring the pot once again to sell more print and airtime.
Could be the same thing misconstrued from a minor Liebour MP, but they're not in office, as if that makes a feck of difference to all but the media, which I hope you will realise.
So I suggest you enjoy another cool, refreshing real ale and carry on as before, Mr NickFitz.
If you think my attitude stinks, you should smell my fingers.
I've been treated in both the main hospitals in bradford, and was unlucky enough to have to stay in the bradford royal infirmary for a couple of weeks. No sign of doctors or nurses wearing niqabs. Plenty of visitors wearing them though.
My wife has had two children in Airedale hospital, keighley (near bradford) and again there was no sign of any staff wearing face coverings.
If you don't see them here I would think the incidence of them occurring at all must be minuscule.

Some hospitals say the veil can be worn for religious reasons. Others - including some in West Yorkshire, Lincolnshire and east London - rule the clothing is not permitted in order to ensure effective communication
Don't be too sure about Bradford being an indicator the rest of the UK
