Manchester Arena victim 'probably would have survived' if not for emergency service failings, report finds
One of the 22 people murdered in the Manchester Arena bombing would probably have survived but for inadequacies in the emergency response, a report has found.
Sir John said it was “highly unlikely” the bombing’s youngest victim, eight-year-old Saffie-Rose Roussos , would have survived her injuries with “only a remote possibility she could have survived with different treatment and care.” “In the first quarter of an hour after the attack and thereafter, there was substantial confusion over the location of an RVP . Each emergency service chose its own.”
By 10.50pm the City Room was a “cold zone”, said Sir John, where it was assessed there was no immediate threat to life from an armed terrorist. He said that did not mean the City Room was entirely safe but a police chief had deemed it “safe enough” for non specialist emergency responders and members of the public to be in.
Sir John said: “To those who experienced it, this period of time will have seemed interminable. It must not happen again.” More paramedics in the City Room would likely have identified the need for urgent treatment and/or evacuation, he said, while more ambulances at the scene would also have meant quicker care. Sir John said Mr Atkinson would probably have been also prioritised quicker for evacuation if firefighters had arrived when they should have.
