We still had time to get things right - we needed 20 sets of #PPE per patient per day- the Govt was told this, & when #COVID19 first appeared at the start of February @BorisJohnson & his govt did nothing

The Govt has delivered through the whole crisis only 1,358,518 gowns but the #NHS needs 100,000s a day, when panic set in they used spin to say ‘we followed the scorn so a total utter lie & criminal negligence

Many #frontline staff are angry at the Govt, one ICU nurse said calling us heroes just makes it ok for us to die

The Govt guidance on what #PPE to wear has been changed because of shortages & the virus #COVID19 was downgraded along with the equipment required- this amounts to deliberate sabotage of what equipment was required to save lives

The Govt has a legal obligation a duty of care to its #NHS staff but instead they downgraded the virus to perpetuate the lie that they were fully prepared & our lives at risk some of which were lost

You @BorisJohnson are a total disgrace, you are no hero , families in this country are grieving the loss of over 40,000 and you have made our #Frontline more vulnerable & have risked their lives 💙

If you haven’t watched it catch @BBCPanorama on iplayer a devastating expose of this rotten Tory Govt’s lies 'Has the Government Failed the NHS?' on
