    An immunocompromised nurse says it was far too hard getting leave from her job at Christchurch's Burwood Hospital

    An immunocompromised nurse says it was far too hard getting leave from her job at Christchurch's Burwood Hospital


    The nurse, who wishes to remain anonymous, needs medication to suppress her immune system and cannot afford to get Covid 19.

    She says she was only given special leave by an assessment team after getting a second opinion from an infectious disease expert.

    In addition, Burwood cleaner Helen Norman says she's been unable to get leave despite having type two diabetes.
