The UK Covid-19 Inquiry was told there are ‘stark’ differences in how black and ethnic minority patients and workers were treated in the NHS during the coronavirus pandemic

He told Friday’s hearing there are “stark” differences in how black and ethnic minority patients and workers were treated in the NHS, and indicated a lack of consideration as to how well face masks might fit on someone with a beard or wearing a headscarf due to their religion.

“Some ward managers aren’t seeing the results that it’s not fitting well and they’re actually still being encouraged to work.“I described earlier about the power imbalances which mean most of our members didn’t feel able to raise those concerns and the brave ones that did weren’t listened to.
