Former UK Health Secretary Matt Hancock stated that ‘do not resuscitate’ (“DNR”) orders were wrongly applied during the covid pandemic, and a systemic review of all DNR notices put in place in early 2020 should be considered.
The Telegraph reported yesterday that while giving evidence to the UK Covid Inquiry on Friday, Hancock said it was “obvious” the orders had been “wrongly applied” in some circumstances and backed an investigation into their use during the pandemic.
Hancock acknowledged that the issue of consent is crucial and expressed his support for a review, although he could not recall ministers looking into it during his time in government due to their focus on preventing the problem.
He insisted he acted “immediately” on concerns over the inappropriate use of DNRs during the covid crisis when he was first alerted to them. And claimed to have acted immediately on concerns over the inappropriate use of DNRs, using the daily press conference to address the issue and discussing it with NHS leadership.
The UK government was threatened with legal action over inconsistent advice on DNRs during the pandemic, leading to the publication of new patient-facing guidelines in July 2020.
A 2021 survey by the care watchdog found that blanket DNR orders were imposed on care home residents without their consent, and people with learning disabilities were also affected, showing a disregard for disabled people’s rights. Age UK described the findings as “extremely disturbing” and confirmed concerns that people’s rights were disregarded during the pandemic.
During his testimony, Hancock also made the case for future lockdowns, despite questions over their justification. Meanwhile, former Prime Minister Boris Johnson has expressed doubts about the effectiveness of national shutdowns in defeating the virus. Johnson described the restrictions as “literally medieval in their savagery and consequences.”

Hi Rhoda,
Matt Hancock should be on trial for conning people.
It was him that spent billions on plastic macs that fitted nobody.
This is just my opinion.
Somebody needs to be first on trial, or we have failed.

Murdering…
Why would anyone believe one word Matt Hancock says
“orders were wrongly applied”????
NO. The orders were obvious intentional and served a depopulation purpose. Whether they were “wrongly” or “rightly” applied is of no consequence at all since that does not change the purpose of applying them in the first place.
Killer-Matt was wrong in applying for a job that turned out to be lethal for the country he represents.
And since he did so anyways, he must pay for his misdeed.
His pathetic and self contradictory apologetic self defense is to be overlooked.

Nothing was done by accident. These ppl are murderers, period.
He should be put on trial for mass murder and if found guilty put down by high doses of midazolam and morphine.
