#Frontline left frightened for their lives, @BorisJohnson over 40,000 dead Not a single protective gown was in national stockpile. Counting single gloves, waste bags, cleaning ept, paper towels as total figures for #PPEforNHS The Fiddled figures exposed in @BBCPanorama

What a scandal our Doctors & Nurses forced to rely on the public for Charity or source their own #PPE as they fight to save lives - aprons mate from binbags!- staff called #FrontLineHeroes by @BorisJohnson but sent to battle without armour #PPEforNHS

Nearly a 100 hospital workers have died from #COVID19 , they didn’t have to & its a lie for our Govt to say they didn’t know a pandemic was coming & has been predicted for over a decade

To be ready for a pandemic you need to stockpile but the UK Govt failed to do so despite repeated warnings over a decade

‘There no excuse for not having adequate stockpiles, you need everything to protect against this kind of virus. It’s breathtaking that there were no gowns in stock’ said John Ashton former President of Faculty of Public Health
