Taoiseach Leo Varadkar says that women affected by the cervical check crisis will be ‘compensated’




Taoiseach Leo Varadkar has said today that women affected by the cervical check misdiagnosis scandal will be ‘compensated’.

The crisis deepened significantly overnight, as it emerged that the number of women affected might run into the thousands.

As many as 3,000 women may need to be rechecked, as their original test results are now in doubt. It is now known that at least 17 women have died as a result of the blunder.
