Default NHS Wales warns against DIY at home

Well, are they particularly incompetent in Wales?
The lower numbers of industrial injuries and vehicle related injuries will
more than compensate for any people nailing their hand to the skirting or
breaking their led stepping back off a ladder.

Calls for not taking 'unnecessary risks' with house work

https://www.bbc.co.uk/cymrufyw/51966001

There is concern that injuries will increase as the public spend long
periods in their homes

There are calls on people not to take "unnecessary risks" with work around
the home over the coming months.

Doctors are concerned that the number of injuries will increase as the
public spends long periods in their homes because of a coronavirus crisis.

"The temptation over the next few weeks will be to do the things around
the house that you've long avoided, like putting up shelves or pictures.

"Don't take unnecessary risks, because we won't have the capacity to
handle you."

Twitter post:

"As a trauma surgeon, don't take unnecessary risks right now - no DIY when
self-isolating, no curtain washing. Because there will be no way to treat
you."
