221+ Say Their Relationship With HSE Is Damaged Following Latest CervicalCheck Controversy
The advocacy group representing women affected by the CervicalCheck scandal says its relationship with the HSE has been damaged by the latest controversy.
Last week it was revealed an IT glitch at a US lab led to 800 women not receiving their results.
A rapid review's now been launched by the HSE to shed light on what happened, and is due to report by August 2nd.
221+ spokesman Stephen Teap's wife Irene died from Cervical cancer in July 2017.
The Cork man has welcomed the independent review, but says the HSE's failure to make the group aware of the issue was wrong:
