Mr Rogers, from Retford, had been diagnosed with stage four bowel cancer in July 2018.
But following the cancellation, a further 20 tumours grew and he was informed surgery was no longer an option.
😡😡😡😡
Utter tragedy. So sorry to hear. Meanwhile Granny Pat who is 94 clings on for another six month’s as Covid was prioritised.
stop lockdown now and stop supporting it with your shameless propaganda
HALTED DUE TO LOCKDOWNS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THERE IS NO PANDEMIC!!!!
How do they justify that!!!
Where's the pandemic been
And they say lockdowns work,just the tip of the iceberg
Sadly he will not be the last. Cancer treatment and especially diagnosis has fallen off the plot due to the Pandemic.
Fake news, no one dies of anything other than covid now.
Tragic
This is what happens when the government scaremongers people into thinking the hospitals aren't safe to go to!! 'Stay at home, protect the NHS and don't ask questions'
take the dam thing serious, we have to work together to end the delays
When we start to get the full data on the catastrophic Human cost of restrictions, especially missed medical treatment, people may finally start to question the validity of all this.
I was diagnosed with advanced kidney cancer after a scan in Spain on the 1/9/20 last year and was seen on my return by a specialist within 2 weeks had further scans and had surgery 3 weeks later. So there are stories that say NHS was and is still working.
Alright, we get it...the pandemic stopped lots of operations....keep up the depressing news
Thank yourself for that, BBC, with your incessant fear-mongering.
Unless we end this mess more will happen. RIP.
This is on you, BBC. And anyone who thinks lockdowns are ok. This is one of millions of stories of lives being ruined as a direct result of the disgusting restrictions placed on our lives. How can anyone defend this?
MikeSwadling Many such cases. Sad
CABennett_Oxon This is happening in the numbers up and down the country because the NHS has become NCS
Wow you are reporting this after spending the year giving us the death countdown and helping locking us all up. Part of the blame lies with you the media
these poor souls with cancer/other serious morbidities have fallen to the way side because of this disease we hear about everyday but has only killed 85 people a day on average over the last 7 days,don’t hear anymore nonsense about people dead in the street where’s all that gone?
MikeSwadling But the only deaths we’re hysterical about are people who died with Covid (not from Covid). Will we stand in our doorsteps tonight with candles for all the people who lost their lives through lack of healthcare in the last year ... no thought not
From personal experience the cancer centres have never been so busy , yes if he'd have gone into a ward last year he'd have probably died of covid , I suppose the surgeon took a risk it would get safer but it didn't
The pandemic didn't decide that, doctors and politicians did.
Funny how with a 'global' effort the coronavirus vaccine can be knocked up in months. Meanwhile cancer what, been treated for 60/70 years yet no vaccine, no cure. Just drugs for treatment.
Sorry but only Covid deaths count. Better luck next time.
BlueCheckLs R.I.P. 😢🙏
That’s happened a lot unfortunately
I don't understand why urgent operations for things like cancer were stopped. Why were Covid patients prioritised over those severly ill with serious ilnesses ?
Criminal
Clap that
Protect the NHS. Then give them a wee clap 😡
Things like this should still be going ahead 💔 It's ESSENTIAL.
Disgraceful. No reason for this to have happened
My sympathy to his family, but this is only just the start !!
Well he would have gone into hospital facing a great risk of catching COVID while his immune system would have been suppressed due too post op care. So his chances would have slim I think anyway.
NHS has not been open for everyone.
He won’t be in the statistics they love telling us will he ?
This is probably what life will be on from now on if climate is behind the viruses
Why u didn't cover the death of a man in Ldn bcoz the Ambulance cud't reach the callout due to the LTN MayorofLondon has imposed illegally. Well done Sadiq another death due to u
McDonald's workers can break the rules to serve us mcnuggets but an operation in full on radioactive ppe can't happen. These surgeons need to grow some balls and just do what's right instead of what a scruffy entitled cartoon character is told what to say but still f's it up
That's the plan.
Meanwhile the fat unhealthy people were being treated for a virus that shouldn’t have even affected them.
The lockdown enthusiasts and bed wetters hang your heads in shame
'But we must stop the old people from dying'
There was no need for lockdowns it was a crazy decision for the harm it caused sheild the vulnerable and crack on its to late now damage is done
This is what happens after 10 years of cutting the NHS to the bone.
Look what China has done to our country they must be made to pay for every life!
