"Darryn Gibson, the chief executive of Sciensus, Britain’s biggest medicines courier, was told in November 2020 that patients with bleeding disorders were being left dangerously exposed to internal bleeding with little or no treatment at home as a result of botched, delayed or missed deliveries.
Sciensus blamed IT issues and promised action. However, three years later, patients remain at “very serious” risk of harm"

So good to finally see this being reported in UK media. #Sciensus should never be allowed anywhere near any form of healthcare contracts.
