THE Scottish government must face facts over growing A&E waits to avoid more “corridor chaos,” Scottish Labour warned today.

Public Health Scotland figures show that 62.3 per cent of those presenting at a hospital accident and emergency department in the week up to October 13 were seen within four hours, compared with 62.6 per cent the previous week.

Both figures fall well short of a 95 per cent target that has gone unmet since July 2020.
