Love Island's Dr Alex vows to beat coronavirus as he fights on NHS frontline

Dr Alex George vowed to beat coronavirus as he continues to work on the frontline for the NHS.

The Love Island star and A&E doctor sent out a strong message to his followers as he posed up in a hospital corridor dressed in scrubs, a face mask and a disposable cap.

He wrote on Instagram : "Covid-19 WILL NOT win. The NHS is SO resilient and we can and WILL do this

"An update from the frontline, as well as the latest information on when widespread testing likely to occur, is live on my YouTube channel. Link is in bio"

He also thanked the nation for their support of NHS workers, adding: "The support from you all is unreal and it’s being heard, believe me. It means so much to all NHS staff"

She had drawn a picture of him on the front - and the likeness was quite uncanny.
