Gavin Grey: UK correspondent on the stats on patients dying in UK hospitals

from Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive · host Newstalk ZB

Over in the UK, the number of patients dying after enduring long waits in A&E departments has risen almost tenfold in a decade. Nearly 16,000 deaths in England last year were linked to such delays - the equivalent of more than 300 every week. UK correspondent Gavin Grey says the Government needs to look into a long-term solution to bring these figures down.  LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
