  • Almost a third of recovered Covid patients return to hospital in five months and one in eight die

    Almost a third of recovered Covid patients will end up back in hospital within five months and one in eight will die, alarming new figures have shown. Research by Leicester University and the Office for National Statistics (ONS) found there is a devastating long-term toll on survivors of severe coronavirus, with many people developing heart problems, diabetes and chronic liver and kidney conditions. Out of 47,780 people who were discharged from hospital in the first wave, 29.4 per cent were readmitted to hospital within 140 days, and 12.3 per cent of the total died. The current cut-off point for recording Covid deaths is 28 days after a positive test, so it may mean thousands more people should be included in the coronavirus death statistics. Researchers have called for urgent monitoring of people who have been discharged from hospital.

  • Duke of York's adviser contacted campaigner who claims Virginia Roberts photograph was doctored

    The Duke of York’s adviser reached out to an online campaigner who claimed to have evidence the photograph with Virginia Roberts was doctored, it has been reported. Mark Gallagher, the Duke’s crisis management specialist, is said to have made contact with Molly Skye Brown who publicly alleges that Ms Roberts is not a victim but a “prostitute” who “trafficked” others. Ms Brown, who has attacked Ms Roberts on social networking site Twitter for a number of months, was said to have first been approached by a close aide of the Duchess of York, Antonia Marshall, who thanked her for her “online support”. In screenshots of the conversation, which Ms Brown passed to the Mail on Sunday, Ms Marshall is alleged to have offered a meeting with the Duchess in order to gain her support and said she would pass on her greetings to the Queen. The possibility of setting up a fake Twitter account to ensnare the woman they suspect of altering the now infamous picture of the Duke with his arm around Epstein’s sex slave was discussed, it is claimed. Ms Roberts, who now goes by her married name Giuffre, claims she was trafficked to the UK in 2001 by Epstein and alleged that she was forced to have sex with the Duke on three occasions in 2001 and 2002, when she was 17. She maintains that the photograph was taken in 2001. The Duke denies that he had any sexual relations with her. Ms Brown, 42, a former teen beauty queen from Florida who says when she was 14 Ghislaine Maxwell tried to recruit her as a masseuse, alleged she passed on “some evidence” that the image was doctored and then passed the exchanges on to the FBI. Ms Roberts publicly denied Ms Brown’s allegations and said that she “blocked her because of her widespread lies”.

  • British lawyer set to prosecute Hong Kong democracy campaigners called 'mercenary' by Dominic Raab

    A British lawyer set to prosecute Hong Kong democracy campaigners has been slated by Dominic Raab for being "mercenary". It comes after it was recently revealed that David Perry QC is being brought in to handle the trial of Jimmy Lai, a publisher and high-profile critic of the Chinese state, and eight other campaigners accused of organising an illegal anti-government march. The Foreign Secretary said he did not understand how any British lawyer could in "good conscience" prosecute a case applying the controversial national security law in Hong Kong. Mr Raab said: "There's no doubt in my mind that under the bar code of ethics a case like this could be resisted and, frankly, I think people watching this would regard it as pretty mercenary to be taking up that kind of case." He said he did not understand how anyone in “good conscience, from the world-leading legal profession that we have, would take a case where they will have to apply the national security legislation at the behest of the authorities in Beijing, which is directly violating, undermining the freedom of the people of Hong Kong, and I understand, in the case of Mr Perry, in relation to the pro-democracy activists”. He added: "From Beijing's point of view, this would be a serious PR coup."
