The earlier warning

Alexandra Briess · 6 Apr 2023 · Heidi Connor, Berkshire

“The issues within this Prevention of Future Deaths report are predominantly national issues, but I heard at inquest that there is no person with named accountability for allergy services and allergy provision at NHS England, or the Department of Health as a whole.”

What was promised

A published response was found, but no specific action could be extracted with a verified quote.

What recurred

  • 26 Jan 2024 · James Atkinson · Karen Dilks · Closely related · confidence 0.90 (high)
  • 20 Aug 2024 · Hannah Jacobs: Prevention of Future Deaths Report (2) · Shirley Radcliffe · Closely related · confidence 0.90 (high)

The clearest link, quoted from both reports:

Earlier · James Atkinson · 26 Jan 2024

“The evidence in this case unequivocally established that [the deceased] was not under regular review for his allergy, risk of anaphylaxis and the benefits of automatic adrenalin injectors.”

Later · Hannah Jacobs: Prevention of Future Deaths Report (2) · 20 Aug 2024

“[the deceased] was regularly prescribed Epi-pens (AAl) and had 2 at home and 2 at school. There was no consideration about how to contain the risk of anaphylaxis on the journey to and from school.”

What happened next
