Collateral Damage

 Nearly 70,000 people in England are likely to die waiting for access to adult social care before the changes revealed this week by Boris Johnson come into force.

 A further 72,883 adults are also likely to have died while waiting for social care in the 26 months between July 2019 – when Johnson said he had “a clear plan we have prepared” – and the point this month when details were finally released.
