Humza Yousaf âinaccurately presentedâ the number of children in hospital because of Covid
Health Secretary Humza Yousaf “inaccurately presented” the number of children in hospital because of Covid, a statistical watchdog has said. In a recent interview, Mr Yousaf said 10 children under the age of nine had been admitted to hospital between May 24 and 30 “because of Covid”. However, it was later found the figures include children who tested positive for the virus in the two weeks before or even during their stay in hospital, meaning coronavirus may not have been the reason for the admission. Mr Yousaf later said he “regrets” any alarm caused.
