Hi @NadineDorries apart from sharing an article that has been criticised can you source the 90% of cases in ICU are unvaccinated?

As a Government minister you must have access to data to be able to verify this?

The official data published tells a different story (see below)

Here is my thread on the Sunday Times article

While @NadineDorries is referring to ICU the same 90% number is being widely used by celebs on mainstream TV as been called out in recent days when referring to patients in hospital.

So @NadineDorries if you can genuinely source where patients are having life saving operations cancelled and the quantity of patients this is I can update my blog to ensure its represents the national picture.

Also @NadineDorries do you also have any comment on the numbers of people dying from other causes at home at the moment significantly above average at the moment.

And will you be calling for further investigation into this?
