The death rate of babies at this hospital was over 10% the average expected death rate for maternity wards.

Just two babies died at the Countess of Chester Hospital in 2013. In 2014, that number was three babies. In 2015, eight babies died.

Then in 2016, five babies died by June, which was only halfway through that year.

The increase in deaths of babies in this hospital’s care forced them to stop caring for any baby younger than 32 weeks old and transferred all babies under this age out of their care.

They also had three intensive care cots that they closed because of the rapidly increasing death rate.

Premature babies were collapsing with lung and heart failure. They were proving impossible to resuscitate, which was beyond bizarre. 

The babies that had died were then showing weird blotches all over their legs and arms after their deaths.
