Coroner - Celian Noumbiwe inquest correspondence

In 2007 a baby named Celian Noumbiwe bled to death in Berkshire, following his cultural/religious circumcision by a GP. The local press reported the death - see link to newspaper article below but otherwise the case seems only to have been briefly covered by one national newspaper - the Times. At the inquest Coroner Peter Bedford criticised the arrangements around the circumcision - the doctor did not see the parents beforehand and the consent form made no reference to the risk of post operative bleeding. The emergency number did not work. On the phone to me Coroner Bedford expressed his frustration that on contacting the GMC and the (then) healthcare commission to ascertain what should be the standards around a baby's circumcision neither organisation seemed willing /able to give such guidance. His and their correspondence is attached. It's of interest to note that the Healthcare Commission seems unaware that religious child circumcision is contracted by the NHS - at the time of writing there was at least one large infant genital cutting scheme which had been running for several years.2007年，一名名为塞利安·努姆比韦（Celian Noumbiwe）的男婴在伯克郡（Berkshire）因全科医生（General Practitioner，GP）实施的文化/宗教割礼后失血过多身亡。当地媒体对此事件进行了报道——详见下文的报纸文章链接——但除此之外，该案件似乎仅被英国《泰晤士报》（The Times）这一家全国性报纸简要提及。在死因聆讯中，验尸官彼得·贝德福德（Peter Bedford）对此次割礼的筹备流程提出批评：涉事医生未提前与患儿父母沟通，且知情同意书未提及术后出血风险；此外，紧急救援号码无法正常使用。贝德福德验尸官在与我通话时表示，他在联系英国总医疗委员会（General Medical Council，GMC）以及时任卫生委员会以咨询婴儿割礼的相关操作标准时，两家机构似乎均不愿或无法提供此类指导。其与上述两家机构的往来函件已附于本数据集中。值得关注的是，彼时卫生委员会似乎并未意识到英国国民保健署（National Health Service，NHS）会承接宗教儿童割礼业务——在撰写本数据集说明时，至少有一项规模较大的婴儿生殖器割礼项目已持续运营多年。
