“Both of you did what you could to save Amitai’s life. Do not consider for one moment giving up your part in Hatzola which would be much the less without you.”
Yesterday, the court heard from Amitai’s father, Ran, who said that the Hatzola crew did not have the correct equipment when they arrived, including an oversized air mask and suction apparatus.
He said that he repeatedly asked them to do more to help their son.
The court also heard from Keith Miller, a London Ambulance paramedic who said that their ambulances supply baby sized equipment and he did not criticise the Hatzola crew for rushing straight to the hospital after they were unable to clear Amitai’s airway.
Mr Walker also ruled that the pathologist's report should no longer say that the baby's collapse “immediately followed” his circumcision.
He said: “The comment is founded on fact now known to be incorrect. It’s not correct to say the collapse occurred immediately following circumcision.”
The inquest continues.
