(CNN) Many UK doctors still do not have adequate protective equipment for treating coronavirus patients, a major survey of British medics has revealed.

The British Medical Association (BMA) announced its findings Saturday after surveying more than 6,000 doctors across the UK.

Although there has been a slight improvement from its last survey, published on April 7, the BMA urged to government to do more to provide personal protective equipment.
