Basildon Hospital to be prosecuted over its legionnaires' record (From Basildon Recorder): BASILDON Hospital will be prosecuted for a string of health and safety breaches which led to patients contracting deadly legionnaires’ disease.
The Echo can reveal the health and safety watchdog is taking the trust to court in connection with cases of the disease contracted at the hospital between 2004 and 2010.
It comes just a week after hospital bosses announced a “zero tolerance” strategy to tackle the virus and said there was just a “one-in-a-million chance” of patients catching it.
