There is no particular factor identified as being the cause of the high number of deaths, however, people raised the alarm of neglect of disabled people and lack of adequate care.
Using the 2011 Census, the Office for National Statistics classified disability status into two. Those who said their daily activities were limited a little or a lot are referred to as “less-disabled” and “more-disabled”. …
