The health secretary, Matt Hancock, has said 19 UK health workers have died after contracting coronavirus, amid backlash over his request that NHS staff do not overuse protective equipment.
I have been admitted in a hospital for an emergency two years ago and I will never forget the care I received from the staff but hospitals are a risky environment to work at no matter what. Every year people die after getting infected including staff
I wouldn’t trust that man to look after my dog never mind a country in the middle of a pandemic
‘Hancock said on Saturday he was unaware of any link between the deaths and a lack of personal protective equipment (PPE)’ obvs total bollocks as all the Gov advice focuses on not exposing yourself to virus - and hospital staff enormously exposed through virus related procedures
His psycho gaze is really disturbing
Its 26 Matt not 19. Please be honest not Conservative with the truth.
Because you don't stand behind your work force idiot
He has no idea of the stats, he has had to be constantly corrected. What an utter waste of space he is.
Matt Hancock said country would be well prepared for pandemic if this is well prepared lam a Dutch uncle what a disgrace he should get his finger out and get it sorted NOW.
Did you go back work before you test negative? You are still spreading virus. Otherwise, you are liar as you were not positive.
This should have been said at the press conference, by him. The coward. Our NHS deserves better than this.
Should start by investigating his own inaction then!
Hancock is a liar🤥
Matt Softcock thumbing in his lies again
Liar
One is too many!
It’s actually 28.
...hope BorisJohnson is reading this....
Wrong about this. About everything MattHancock ToryShambles

I’d like to see this being recorded and assessed by an independent body
