In the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, many hospitals will be forced to deal with a huge upsurge in patients requiring specific medical equipment, such as ventilators.

What's more, with doctors and nurses returning to the NHS from retirement in the UK, and new temporary hospitals opening to help cope with demand, more protective clothing for medical staff will be necessary.

That's where one medical fetish company - MedFet UK - comes in.

Taking to Twitter, the company revealed that they had been contacted by procurement representatives looking for equipment.

MedFet wrote the following:

"Today we donated our entire stock of disposable scrubs to an NHS hospital. It was just a few sets, because we don't carry large stocks, but they were desperate, so we sent them free of charge. We don't usually do politics on Twitter, but here's a short thread. [1/5]"

They continued:

"When you see someone from the government saying the NHS is getting what it needs, that is a LIE. We have been contacted this week by representatives of NHS procurement all over the country, trying to source basic protective equipment and clothing. [2/5]"

"When we, a tiny company set up to serve a small section of the kink community, find ourselves being sought out as a last-resort supplier to our National Health Service in a time of crisis, something is seriously wrong. In fact, it's scandalous. [3/5]"

"Let's be under no illusions, this is the result of a decade of chronic underfunding and cuts which has left the NHS barely able to cope under normal circumstances, much less when faced with the onslaught of a global pandemic. It did not, and should not, have to be this way [4/5]"

So when it's all over...and the doctors, nurses and other staff have done an amazing job (as they undoubtedly will despite the circumstances)...let's not forget, or forgive, the ones who sent the NHS into this battle with inadequate armour and one hand tied behind its back. [End]

People praised MedFet on Twitter, but the company was quick to redirect the praise back to the doctors and nurses working on the frontline of the battle against the coronavirus pandemic. They wrote:

"We appreciate the amazing response, but we are not heroes and we don't deserve any special kudos. We just did the obvious and only right thing to do. The real heroes are the NHS staff at every level who are on the front line of this fight."
