A woman has told of the drastic measures her loved one has taken to protect her from potential exposure. An ICU worker in NSW has made an extreme effort to keep his loved one safe from Covid-19. Amy Farrugia took to social to explain why her partner would be sleeping in a tent outside. In the TikTok, the University of Newcastle student said her partner Jake would start working with Covid-19 patients in Ithe CU.” He wants to sleep in a tent, so I don’t get sick,” she said.”That’ss where he’ll be until I’m vaccinated.”
The video shows her buying camping equipment, including a blow-up mattress and blankets, and a tent pitched in the backyard. Ms. Farrugia purchased a new duvet and recorded herself trying to make the bed” as comfortable as possible”. She also left snacks and supplies inside the tent and put beers in an Esky. The woman signed off the video telling everyone to”stay safe”.” My vax appointment is next month, so hopefully, he won’t be in there long. Shout out to #healthcare workers,” her post caption read. The video has since been viewed more than 114,000 times since it was uploaded one day ago. Parts of NSW have been in lockdown since June 26 as the state’s Covid-19 outbreak could not be contained.
