The deaths, mostly infants,
occurred iu the cardiac ward of
Toronto’s Hospital for Sick
Children between July 1980 and
March 1981, when the ward’s
death rate increased from a nor
mal 1.5 per month to five per
month.
“There are 28 deaths for
which the findings regarding
the cause of'death are not incon
sistent with digoxin overdose,”
Attorney General Roy McMur-
try told the leglislaure Monday,
quoting a report by the Centers
for Disease Control in Atlanta.
“In seven of these cases, there
is significant scientific evidence
that death was caused by deli
berate overdose of digoxin.”
McMurtry said no decision
has been made on whether cri
minal charges would be initi
ated, but police would have a re
port ready early next month.
T he names and ages of the dead
have not been released.
“It remains to be decided
whether there is sufficient evi
dence to identify the perpetra
tor. This matter rests with the
law enforcement authorities,”
McMurty quoted the U.S. report
as saying.
