Two 'incompetent' paramedics struck off after telling dying woman, 30, who could barely breathe that she 'had a stomach bug'
Sarah Thomas called ambulance after she struggled to breathe
'Would have survived if she was taken to hospital and given injection'
Paramedic David Glover told her she just had stomach bug
Disciplinary hearing has heard that Glover and colleague Michael Davies tried to cover up their mistake by fabricating her clinical record

Dial 999 today and you might get an ambulance crew with just six weeks' training

Emergency care assistants, basically first-aiders, often sent to help 999 call
They were first on the scene in 170,000 of most serious incidents in England
