Manchester Arena victim’s family told she 'could have been saved'

I'm not sure what is wanted from these revelations, or who will benefit. I can see that an internal enqury might have revealed faults in the system, things which could have been done better and would mean improvements in the future. But the paramedics and all the medical staff involved in this must still be devastated and traumatised, as the parents will be. Perhaps they think raising it so publicly will help and improve things for others. All I can think is that such a tragedy for everyone involved should not be the stuff of news headlines.

It is upsetting. Also a bit puzzling. If the poor little girl had lost so much blood in the first hour then I am surprised she made it that far. It must have been horrendous for the first medics who arrived on site, where to start. A nightmare for all concerned and hindsight is a wonderful thing but can’t bring back our loved ones. Very, very sad.

Poor, poor little girl. And terribly poor family, too.

It would have been kinder not to share that with them.

I thought exactly the same as you ixion.Surely this will add to the family’s grief not help them.
