No babies being prescribed insulin at time nurse Lucy Letby allegedly poisoned child with medicine, trial hears
BBC News
Ms Letby is accused of attempting to kill the boy, referred to as Child F, at Countess of Chester Hospital in August 2015.The doctor, who cannot be named for legal reasons, said "accidental administration" could be ruled out. The twins had been born prematurely and Ms Letby, originally of Hereford, cared for both boys, the jury has heard.Giving evidence at Manchester Crown Court, the paediatric consultant described medical notes made by a colleague following tests made on Child F after his condition deteriorated.
She said Child F had been given a small dose of insulin to help regulate his blood sugar shortly after his birth, but this would have "long gone" by that time.
