Everybody wants a system that's safe. The only debate there is who is preventing progress. But current efforts are very much themed around uniquely securing immunity from GNM prosecution for doctors imho. Something I, as a member of the public, find to be objectionable frankly.

The distinction is doctors who intentionally set out to do harm and those that might do harm in the course of providing care to the best of their ability. The former should rightly be prosecuted. The latter need a more compassionate approach even if there are sanctions.

Sorry, but that's part of the myth that's built up since the
#BawaGarba propaganda machine kicked in (belatedly). GNM doesn't require intent - that would make it murder. Manslaughter charges exist to recognise just such a lack of intent where gross negligence proves to be deadly.2 replies 4 retweets 3 likes -
#BawaGarba showed a multitude of systems failures - understaffing of Medical & Nursing staff, no supervision, no induction, a blood reporting system failure there was no accountability or corporate manslaughter charge for the trust. As the NHS squeeze worsens, will this continue?6 replies 1 retweet 6 likes -

I'm familiar with the details, yes. I also know that the jury found
#BawaGarba's acts/omissions to be truly, exceptionally bad (& thus grossly negligent) even *in all the circumstances*. Forgive me taking the lazy option, but it's a lot to have to re-type:https://twitter.com/c7rky/status/1029303542685814789?s=21 …John Clarke added,

Many court findings have subsequently been found to be inappropriate. Her care was not as found "truly exceptionally bad" but an unsurprising result of such a flawed and unsafe system. Had she pointed that out she would have been persecuted like Dr Day and other whistleblowers.

She would have needed time and courage to whistleblow during in her double shift whilst doing the work of several people at once, you are unreasonably expecting her and others to be superhuman and in so doing making more tragedies more likely

#BawaGarba is a convicted criminal who has been refused leave to appeal - twice - by the same judge who overturned David Sellu's conviction and raised the legal bar to 'truly exceptionally bad' for future cases. So yes, her care was exactly as found, despite your assertion. >>5 replies 2 retweets 3 likes -

Most Drs reading the conditions on those day come to the conclusion that it could easily have been them. What is truely exceptionally bad should be judged against how another Dr of equal experience would have performed. When most Drs feel it could have been them then IMHO it prob

Isn't truely exceptionally bad-as everyone feels it could've been them. The practice of using confidential reflections against her in the proceedings places patients in jeopardy up & down the country. The case is obviously a tragic one, & my thoughts are with all affected.

'It probably isn't truly exceptionally bad as everyone feels it could've been them'? That's not how the law works. Please read my letter above, but re 'everyone', can they detail her 22 errors? How many have access to the trial transcript? How many know what they're defending?

Oh, and as I understand it, her reflections weren't presented in court? Albeit that Mr O'Riordan gave evidence as the consultant and he'd clearly had access to them. He's a whole other conversation.
