Inquiry into care home deaths in Northern Ireland
Robin Swann must begin a public inquiry immediately into the hundreds of death in care homes during the pandemic.
Why is this important?
"If these deaths had happened in a children's home I think there would have been an investigation a long time ago, but because it's the elderly it just seems to be pushed to the side"
Hundreds of care home residents died across Northern Ireland during the first wave of the pandemic. Each of them was valuable, and are grieved by their loved ones.
The Department for Health's report in 2020 did not accept there was a link between these deaths and the discharge of patients from hospitals without Covid testing.
