: Informed consent was obtained online by participants reading the information sheet and completing the online consent form by clicking yes on all the consent statements. Informed consent was obtained at the beginning of the survey. Therefore, each participant completed the survey on a different date and time, between March 6 and July 20, 2023. Informed consent was obtained by Sachini Weerawardhana from all participants (i.e. the first responders). Consent covered participation in the online survey, withdrawal, processing of data under the terms of the UK data protection law, including the UK General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Data Protection Act (2018), and publishing of processed data in scientific conferences and journals. The study does not involve vulnerable individuals. The survey was fully anonymous. Participants were made aware of this upon signing their consent to take part in the study. Since the data collected was anonymous, no anonymisation process was needed.
