ACCUSED OVER 10k DEATHS

NHS campaigners will today hand a coronavirus dossier to police on Nicola Sturgeon, calling for her to be investigated for corporate homicide.

The group, Action for a Safe People's NHS, blame the Scottish Government for about 10,000 deaths since the Covid pandemic struck.

Founding member and former Crown prosecutor Roger Livermore claims blunders over the handling of Covid were a "government-sponsored crime".

They have collated evidence centring around deaths in care homes, hospitals and among healthcare staff.

Included in the dossier is evidence on the use of unsafe, unlawful and out-of-date masks and PPE equipment; a lack of risk assessments on wards and the destruction of paperwork around Covid patients being placed in care homes.

The group also claim the misuse of Do Not Resuscitate orders, also known as DNA-CPRS, led to more deaths.
