@SJaneBernal Hi Jane - which board papers were those? Would be good to have a read.

Dr James Gagg, South West regional chair for @RCollEM said that a "clot-busting" medicine can be used to treat some stroke victims - but it has to be given within four and a half hours. Ambulance waiting times for strokes in Cornwall are 2 hours 58 mins https://t.co/z6PWtkkmST
