About 50,000 patients die in a state of malnutrition each year at NHS facilities, according to one recent report.

50,000 a year in a small place like Scotland? OMG. That is sick.

I think the 50,000 number is for the NHS for the entire UK. But, when you consider that the UK population is around 62 million, that is an incredible amount of avoidable deaths.
