He didn't have pneumonia. He was subsequently discharged.

“Jack was quickly assessed upon arrival and seen in two different clinical treatment rooms in the Paediatric Emergency Department.
“Within four hours a decision was made to admit Jack to our Children’s Assessment and Treatment (CAT) Unit for further monitoring overnight.
"Unfortunately, the unit was also experiencing exceptionally high levels of demand which meant that Jack was required to wait in the clinical treatment room in the Paediatric Emergency Department until a bed became available."

The bottom line is they left a young child with suspected pneumonia who was obviously exhausted to have to lay on the floor on a pile of coats just to get some much needed rest.

Anyhow.... Now people aren't chatting from pure suspicion and that I've highlighted the actual facts, I'm going to leave the thread.
Hopefully the it's fake mob can hang their heads in shame. They would rather dismiss honest journalism for petty political propaganda simply because they don't want to believe it. How embarrassing.

Spath - did you not read the paragraph below you pasted?
"Unfortunately, the unit was also experiencing exceptionally high levels of demand which meant that Jack was required to wait in the clinical treatment room in the Paediatric Emergency Department until a bed became available."
If there was not a bed immediately available due to "...exceptionally high levels of demand...", what do you expect the hospital to do? Sometimes hospitals experience a high demand for their services, and they simply cannot magic extra beds or wards out of thin air.
This is not the fault of the Tories or Boris - it is simply that on that day at that time, there were no beds immediately available due to a high level of demand.

You have to remember that hospitals are 'always' overstretched at this time of the year. No-one can predict how many people who will get ill or whether the next person who comes through the door will be much sicker than the person before hand.
A&E is not a first come, first served service...the sickest jump the queue, and rightly so.
I'm sure his mother would have informed staff if his condition deteriorated.

Ummm, it's suppose to mean.. That's what the prime minister did. He ignored calls to look at the image, he then took it and put it in his pocket. What this whole thread is about.
