In Wales the number of hospital beds will effectively be doubled, the health minister said today. Six thousand of them will be in field hospitals in converted leisure centres and stadiums.

So far, 117 people who have tested positive for Covid-19 have died in Wales. Channel 4 News spoke to some those at the heart of the NHS response in Swansea, Llanelli and Neath.
