A nurse who died of tuberculosis after being exposed to the Victorian disease while volunteering on an NHS ward should have been warned of the exposure months earlier, a coroner has ruled in a damning report.

Carrianne Franks, 30, found out less than 24 hours before she died that she had contracted TB. The day before her death she sent a worried text to her parents after she was finally diagnosed to say: "Mum, they found out what I have.

I've got TB." Her family were unable to say goodbye as she was quickly placed in a coma in intensive care, where she died. Her devastated parents Chris and Bev Franks are now calling on more to be done to protect the people who are caring for others throughout the country's hospitals, the Mirror reports.

RAF sergeant Carrianne had worked as a flight nurse for 10 years and was on a three-year deployment at London's Chelsea and Westminster Hospital when the Covid pandemic hit.

Prince Harry ‘offered to help’ royal family amid health crises, but they’ll ‘manage’ without: ex-butler
he undergoes cancer treatment, and Kate Middleton sitting out royal engagements until after March 31 following her abdominal surgery, the royals are having to undergo a major reshuffle.As they navigate their health woes, the Duke of Sussex, 39, has reportedly offered up his services to the royal household, who will “manage” without, according to Grant Harrold, who worked for Charles for seven years when he was the Prince of Wales.“I’m sure Harry has offered to help, but I think at the moment they’re able to carry on and manage as they are — other members of the royal family are available to step in while key figures are recuperating, so it’s unlikely Harry will need to,” Harrold exclusively told The Post.“There’s obviously quite a few members of the royal family — they’re certainly not short of them — who can step up when in need. It’s not impossible for Harry to get more involved, though.”Harrold this week said he believes that the father of two will happily ditch California and step up to help out the royal family — should that be something they’d want him to do.However, it seems as though Harry’s help is not needed, as Prince William, 41, this week took the reins along with Princess Anne, and the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh while the King receives treatment.Queen Camilla, 76, for her part, has reportedly jetted off on a sunny vacation this week after an “exhausting” few weeks of extra official engagements.“As far as the King goes, he’s taking some time out while he has treatment.
