They are only facts that more people die at the weekend but the statistics are Friday to Monday not just Saturday and Sunday. Those statistics don't suggest its lack of junior doctors as a contribution.

wrong. people admitted on a sunday are 16% more likely to die than those admitted on a Wednesday. clearly that is directly attributable to the skeleton staff on weekends. common sense , decency and a sense of morality must be shown and something major had to be done, the tories had the guts and morality to do something, the labour cowards did nothing and let innocent thousands die of neglect.
