BREAKING: Whitehall sources tell me @PHE_uk review into BAME ppl disproportionately being affected by #COVID19 is delayed for 2nd time because No 10 is “worried about current global events”. They say it’s in “too close proximity” to the #BlackLivesMatterUK protests. More @SkyNews
Sources go on to tel me it would be “bad taste” if they published the report now. And that government won’t be able to release a report without “concrete and solid next steps.” @SkyNews

UPDATE: Response from @DHSCgovuk

I was told the review was pencilled in for Wednesday, but because of current “global events” it would feel “bad taste” to release the review in “close proximity” to these current tensions.

Over 5 weeks ago, the man who is tasked with leading @PHE_uk review into why BAME people have been disproportionately affected by #COVID19 tweeted about the issue. STILL, we have no answers from him, PHE or government. The only constant is, people are dying.
For 6 weeks - we have been reporting on this issue:
First we explained why this could be the case. And asked the government what are they going to do about it?
Then we looked at why at the time 72% of healthcare workers that had died from #COVID19 were BAME. And NHS England told us they were “incredibly worried” about this.
