There but for the grace of God. . . ‘Who of us has not made mistakes that have harmed patients? ’ ‘The then president of the UK General Medical Council, Graeme Catto, told how he still felt guilty because, as a newly appointed consultant, he delayed starting antibiotics in a young man with meningococcal septicaemia. The patient died. ’
