    Regarding those 128 fake #NHS Staff accounts posting for 'Herd Mentality' and support of the Govt that were set up by @DHSCgovuk or their marketing agency ...

        The one person has been identified. Despite the @DHSCgovuk reply to my queries of 'no comment' (and that's all she wrote), that person is a contracted Government employee temporarily assigned to this department.

        I offered to provide all data to the @DHSCgovuk for purposes of internal investigation. They declined. I asked to deal directly with their Soc Med and Comms team to work through the data. They declined. Our digging continues.

        .@DHSCgovuk are adopting a corporate 'head in the sand' 'fingers in the ears' approach to this matter, hoping it will be swept aside by ongoing news stories of a more serious nature. After all, who cares about industrial scale misinformation in the face of so many deaths?pic.twitter.com/TBHJQcpDJy

        So I can only reiterate : @DHSCgovuk - address these issues now.

        Addendum : I quoted "28 fake #NHS Staff accounts" for clarity. In actuality, there are 128 confirmed, 9 probables and 14 possibles, and amongst those, there are 16 which do not claim an #NHS connection. 43 accounts use actual photos of actual NHS staff.

        Addendum : "43 accounts use actual photos of actual NHS staff." Of which I have contacted a mere handful, 7, and confirmed that their identities were being used without authorisation. Reason for only 7 contacted ? They're understandably a bit busy right now.

        Addendum : (again, sorry) The accounts have now mostly gone, not suspended by Twitter but deleted by the account holder(s) in one simultaneous mass cull a few days ago ... At the click of a button. Which itself, goes to prove the singular control of all the accounts.

        .@WestHertsNHS Can you confirm that '@nhs_susan' here is a creation of the DHSC Communications Team, and not in fact, one of your hardworking staff at the Starfish Ward ?

        I am currently taking legal advice to protect my sources, methods of data gathering, and of course those who do the collating and analysis of the data.

        Further Addemdum: When we state 'DHSC', to clarify, this is either directly, or indirectly via a ''Marketing Agency'' set up a few months ago with one client (guess who) and three staff (all ex DHSC). A poor attempt at deniability.

        Hence, if and when DHSC claim 'it's not us' (which they have done, to me, in email exchanges), they're being disingenuous.

        Additional : DHSC and various NHS Trusts seem to show no interest in the welfare of the genuine staff members who's identities have been lifted and used for Government Propaganda. Surely 'Duty of Care' comes into it? No interest in the data when I offered.

        Further : The accounts originally pushed for the 'herd immunity'. In later days they changed tack and were were pushing for the country to 'open up again'. Not to much of a stretch that the operation was to test the waters for a change in policy. Just a theory.

        A reminder ; DHSC were fairly offered an opportunity by me, via email and telecon, to address these issues. A chance to 'get ahead' of the story. I was duty bound to offer that to them. It was dismissed out of hand.

        Further, as a result of the attention this thread has attracted, i have received further datasets from other parties who were also sniffing around he edges of the story. All confirmatory. at first glance but demands further analysis.

        Further ... This is not new. The methods, the technology, the tools, all used before by the various #Brexit Campaigns. What's different here is the scale, and almost certain Government Department involvement, either officially or 'under the radar'.

        Statement: The data is still being analysed. More data is coming in. It's complex and needs to be packaged up into form understandable by non-geeks (no small task) And then gold plated.
