Furious relatives explained how a lack of PPE and testing meant the virus ravaged through hospital wards and infected patients who they never saw again
Bereaved families have told the Covid-19 Inquiry that their loved ones were “treated like toxic waste” and demanded lessons are learned.
Furious relatives explained how a lack of PPE and testing meant the virus ravaged through hospital wards and infected patients who they never saw again.
They spoke of the lasting grief linked to the “lack of dignity” in death, and being unable to say goodbye, before victims were “double bagged” in body bags that could not be unzipped.
After giving evidence, witness Brenda Doherty told the Mirror she had nothing but “pure disgust” for former PM Boris Johnson and Government staff who “partied while people were dying alone”.
