The author of a major report detailing the dangers transgender healthcare practices pose to children said that she had been told to avoid public transport amid security concerns.
Dr Hillary Cass, the former president of the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health, told The Times of London that she is facing abuse and threats following the publication of her report on the impact of transgender ‘medicine’ has on children in Britain.
“I’m not going on public transport at the moment, following security advice, which is inconvenient,” Dr Cass said.

She went on to accuse many of her critics of spreading “misinformation” about the damning report, including from left-wing Labour MP Dawn Butler, who had asserted in the House of Commons that “over 100 studies have not been in this Cass report”.
Cass said that Butler’s claim was “completely wrong, explaining that the list of studies cited by Butler had “absolutely nothing to do with either our report or any of the papers.”
“If you deliberately try to undermine a report that has looked at the evidence of children’s healthcare, then that’s unforgivable. You are putting children at risk by doing that,” she added.
In her 388-page report, the top paediatrician riled the far-left by claiming that transgender medical practices were “built on shaky foundations” and that the National Health Service should no longer provide those under the age of 18 with puberty-blocking drugs.
In contrast to the radical left’s position, which demands so-called “gender-affirming care” in which life-altering medications and surgeries are plied on youngsters, Cass said that there was little evidence to support the claim that puberty-blocking drugs helped children with their “mental or psychosocial health”, while the long-term effects of such treatment on “cognitive and psychosexual development” have not been thoroughly explored.
