This message is for Hospital trusts #NHSTrusts #GPs There are many thousands of people who are vulnerable and in a very difficult situation with #COVID that need safe access to medical care for some of the following reasons:
1. They are immunocompromised and have an allergy so can’t be vaccinated
2. UKHSA isn’t offering all cev vaccines who are still high risk. They are continuing to narrow the criteria and are leaving many with lung/heart/kidney conditions out in the cold.
3. Children who shielded

3. Children who shielded
are now not all being vaccinated. These children were indoors for 20 months and many are understandably anxious at now not having vaccine protection.
Prompted by @LynnFOI, a [Thread] on the #NHSTrusts that cut #commercial deals to #copy their patients' data* to (formerly) Lord Drayson's now-delisted "AI" company, @SensyneHealth

1) @OUHospitals (Oxford University Hospitals) took £5 million in @SensyneHealth shares for its patients' data in July 2017:

It LOST £9.2 million on the value of those shares, HAS copied patients' data, and HAS NOT terminated its contract with #Sensyne...

2) @nhsswft (South Warwickshire Foundation Trust) received £5 million in @SensyneHealth shares, in a deal cut in 2018:

Bad enough that @SensyneHealth has cost NHS Trusts nearly £15 million - Lord Drayson's claim to be 'giving something back to the NHS' lies in tatters - but what people should *really* be asking about is the MILLIONS of #patients' data the company claims to be processing...
...because, as our letter to the Trusts in April pointed out, at least some of their patients' data that they handed over is #linkable #pseudonymised data - i.e. it is #identifiable, thus #PersonalData in UK law:

So while @SensyneHealth's #shareholders might want to check the company's claims about the #amount of NHS patients' data it actually has, those Trusts that HAVE passed #identifiable data to #Sensyne should terminate their agreements asap - and demand certified #deletion, too...
