Professor Smith is a snake in the grass, a treacherous individual trying to appear harmless and sincere when in fact he is the exact opposite. He is the
Chief Medical Officer for Scotland and is ultimately responsible for the harmful medical response to a viral infection, the buck stops with him but I am certain he will throw anyone he can under the bus to save himself when the time comes. The awful thing is he is just one of the many snakes who is in control of our country.
What chutzpah these Profs have, and what convenient 'ignorance' of matters of which they must have had knowledge. Echoing below.....the reporting is much appreciated.
My experience of Public Consultation in recent years has been that govt/council does something and then after it goes wrong they pay themselves to consult the public about what they should have done.. then they pay themselves to research what went wrong the first time. Its been back to front for quite a while. If the govt knew better then it might be excusable to a degree but in the contexts I'm thinking of the public actually had better awareness and ideas . i think we've lost track of the fact the public/grassroots might know better ...
Yes, very, very interesting ! AND long lasting abusive use of DNACPR orders : https://jme.bmj.com/content/48/12/941.long "The research found that over half of participants reported making more patients DNACPR ("non réanimatoires") than prepandemic, and this was due, at least in part, to an increased focus on factors including patient age, Clinical Frailty Scores and resource limitations."
The misuse of fragility scales leading to prioritizations disconnected from the state and the real medical situation of the patient leads to disasters.
great reporting as always!
Thanks.

A godless man. Chose the affirmation and not the oath at the start so no words ''so help me god.''

Thanks for link. I have a new segment of video around clinical frailty to upload vs Professor Smith testimony.
That's an important issue.
The misuse of fragility scales leading to prioritizations disconnected from the state and the real medical situation of the patient leads to disasters.
Just added the footage. Yes it's the misuse of the clinical frailty scale and HCWs needed an ethics committee set up to deal with it.
