BBC Scotland’s ‘lead infection control doctor’ contradicts the research she led but which did not support her scaremongering and unscientific current position on the inquiry

By Professor John Robertson:

I’m grateful to cuckooshoe for alerting me to NHS Scotland Assure Research Q&A Cupriavidus” Dr Theresa Inkster. Research Q&A: Prevalence and concentration of Cupriavidus and other opportunistic premise plumbing pathogens (OPPPs) in healthcare water systems across Scotland and England published in

In an astonishing reversal of the findings from the above which she led, Inkster, today tells us:

A senior doctor has told an inquiry she was “appalled” at the state of child cancer wards when a new £870m hospital opened in Glasgow in 2015. In evidence presented to the Scottish Hospitals Inquiry, infection control doctor Teresa Inkster said she felt “something had gone horribly wrong”. Dr Inkster led the investigation into two cases of cryptococcus in 2019, a fungal infection associated with pigeons droppings. Two patients died after contracting the fungal infection while being treated at the hospital.1

Yet in 2021, a report based on research led by Dr Inkster, had:

Has Dr Inkster had a memory lapse or does she just want to tell a different story to suit BBC Scotland and Scottish Labour?

The organism thought to be a risk factor was in other hospitals too; it was always in the outlets thus not in the feed to the wards; it can be easily mistaken; hospital water is never sterile.

    1. When Michael Gove was so disparaging of ”experts” , perhaps he had this lady in mind “

      Indeed.

      She , this doctor, seems an “Expert” at trying to mislead the public instead of actually informing them on all of the actual truth and facts connected to the subject she speaks about.

      Of course this is the kind of guff we, in Scotland, are constantly subjected to by a sub standard partisan pro UK media and also via specially selected “Experts” whose constant output , as both a pro UK media and as “Experts” , are always found to be drowning in misinformation and partisan selective opinions that always somehow manages to implicate and so negatively impact the Scottish government .

      (Which then has a negative political impact upon the SNP who currently are the Scottish government).

      Meanwhile in the rest of the UK , as governed by other pro UK political parties, all of their public services are to be assumed as being far better as in more efficient and so better ran than Scotland’s.

      We are also expected to believe they have less, indeed no apparent serious problems and scandals befalling them in their public services , while being governed by any pro UK political parties as their respective governments !

      (As in they are neither publicised as such in Scotland by the pro UK media nor ever compared to Scotland on their respective performances as other governments by that same Pro UK media in Scotland)

      And so they, the rest of the UK , all have apparently lived happily ever after, at least that’s what the Pro UK media in Scotland and also the Pro UK political parties in Scotland (and elsewhere too) expect us the public in Scotland to assume and so believe is the reality elsewhere in the UK.

      (Reality of course is that in England & Wales it is more of a horror story than a Fairy tale under the various pro UK political parties various reigns as governments within the rest of the UK and with Labour as those who are very much NOT the exception to that particular rule in fact they are pretty much a major part of the problem).

  1. O/T

    I see the BBC are being true to form as per.

    Last week BBC QT had a Reform UK party individual on their panel.

    (Yes I know the Reform UK party, in the recent UK GE, have MP’s at WM but still, come on, their first show back after their break, and they just had to include a Reform UK party person on their panel).

    BTW none of the Reform UK Party MP’s were elected in Scotland but guess where they were , via country, elected from- also the BBC in Scotland would like that to change in them inviting some of them (Reform UK party members and candidates) onto a TV in both the news where you supposdley are and also onto the debate programmes where YOU are too (as in within those in Scotland).

    Tonight’s BBC Debate night has a former UK GE candidate for Reform UK Scotland (that’s a contradiction for sure as in ‘UK Scotland’) on their panel.

    What is it about the BBC where they are always too willing to embrace ,welcome and platform undesirable supposed ‘political’ individuals onto their various programmes (even when, as yet , these supposed political parties have no elected politicians, as voted for, by Scotland in either the last UK GE or in the Scottish parliament elections).

    While they , the BBC, took great care to try to diminish the reality that the SNP in Scotland once had the most elected MP’s at WM as elected by the public in Scotland and also that they, the SNP, have been the government in Scotland for 17 years .

    As on their BBC political Debate programmes we have often seen when in Scotland , on both BBC QT and also on BBC Debate night, an often dominant presence of pro UK panel members compared to pro independence panel members.

    Also the same could be said of their various audiences when their debate programme were ever broadcast from somewhere in Scotland which pre the recent GE did not reflect how that town/City had voted. (As in they voted For the SNP yet the majority of the audience seemed anti SNP via their Q’s and remarks).

    This is what the BBC always do.

    That’s why their UK is in the absolute mess it is in .

    As corrupt media corporations like the BBC always backs (promotes) the real wrong ‘uns (like Farage and his many various supposed political parties) while others, like the SNP, are promoted by that same BBC as the real and only Baddies within the UK.

    Of course none of this matters until more in Scotland wake up, or at least have an inkling , as to what is really really really going on right under their noses !

    Thanks very much to the non verified news courtesy of the BBC (and t’others too just like ’em who all apparently worship at the altar of the #BADUK and those parties who represent it as a fake and corrupt state).
