What to do if your faithful companion becomes ill during the lockdown? You make an appointment to see the vet but then they tell you that you are not allowed to accompany your pet while it’s being seen by the vet. The Medical Centre for Animals in Amsterdam had to comply with stringent corona measures to prevent infections and to stay open. It was decided that pet owners had to wait outside or in the waiting room while their pet was being seen. The owner was only allowed to accompany their pet in exceptional circumstances. People whose pets had to be hospitalised were unable to visit although arrangements were made to keep owner and pet connected through video calls.
