🔍 **Terrifying Blunder at Newport Hospital** 🏥
A shocking mistake at Royal Gwent Hospital in Newport has left 21 patients potentially exposed to HIV and Hepatitis. Unsterilised surgical tools were used in operations on February 25th and 26th. Patients were only informed after a whistleblower raised the alarm, weeks after the hospital had discovered the error. 📅
Plaid Cymru called the failings “terrifying” and demanded “full transparency” from the Aneurin Bevan university health board. While Dr Seema Srivastava, the health board’s medical director, assures that the risk of infection is “extremely low,” there are serious concerns over delayed communication. 🕵️♀️
Plaid Cymru voiced frustration over consistent “horror stories” in Welsh healthcare and stressed the need for governance reform. They are pushing for action to ensure proper patient care and transparency. 📢
