Niggling thought of the day:
Why are doctors saying that this week GMC made patients less safe?
Why were patients still safe when #BawaGarba got convicted of gross negligent manslaughter, but we're not now she's been struck off?
Does loss of career hold more fear than conviction?

All seniors are fond of their
#juniors and feel it is the responsibility of the systems leaders, process, and consultant who must be held to account. Having read the judgment in full I now agree with the court#BawaGarba Sad story but now we must learn lessons1 reply 1 retweet 1 like -

Yes, although I'm not qualified to judge, you're the 3rd clinician who has seemed satisfied that she did indeed do wrong after reading the details. Not sure how fond the consultant was of this junior though? Thrown under the bus seems to be a common observation.

It is all about judgment. I strongly feel any junior should not be sent to prison or erased when there are systems failures. This is a purely personal view but she did make many mistakes and that as someone who is a registrar is not acceptable. There are no right or wrong answers

This case aside for a moment, you don't think ANY junior should be erased? Even the ones convicted of gross negligent manslaughter? You know how high that bar is as well as I do. Convictions extremely rare. Surely that demands a robust response to protect the public?

Please do not go by conviction. Not in this case but I know 3 cases of miscarraige of justice. So I read everything before I give my opinion. My reputation matters to me and so is my integrity.

I know of more miscarriages of justice than I can count, so I understand that. But we either give weight to a serious conviction or we don't. What needs focus here is the legal representation and why system issues (plus the consultant & employers) were sidelined.

Not when you destroy some good human being. No No No. 27 doctors have committed suicide! Think of their family! Please

I think of all the many families who have been destroyed by the actions/inaction of the NHS & regulators. Including those 27 doctors. But ignoring court decisions seems wrong. Much needs to be examined about this case and it may not mean the verdict is wrong.

If you present wrong evidence juries get confused and emotion plays a part. So it is important how you present the case. Not in this case

What wrong evidence is that, Umesh? Not sure which parts of that tweet relate to the specific case and which are generic comment. I can see an argument that evidence of other failures may have gone unheard here, but have you also noticed something that was incorrect?
