NHS staff who wrongly accessed tiger victim’s records should be sacked, says Yvette Cooper

Health secretary says it is total disgrace' if staff looked up William Chapman, who died at Yorkshire Wildlife Park

NHS staff who inappropriately accessed the medical records of a man mauled to death by a tiger should be sacked, Yvette Cooper said.

The health secretary said the incident - which followed reports earlier this year that staff had unnecessarily viewed details about the Southport attack victims and those murdered by Valdo Calocane in Nottingham in 2023 - was a total disgrace".
