General election 2019: How many 'new' NHS hospitals are Conservatives building?

General election 2019: How many 'new' NHS hospitals are Conservatives building? The Conservatives have repeatedly pledged to build 40 new NHS hospitals.

The party's manifesto says they are proud "to have begun work on building 40 new hospitals across the country".

"We will build and fund" them, it adds, "over the next 10 years."

The pledge has been questioned throughout the election campaign. Is it certain that all 40 will be built? Will they be creating new beds and additional capacity or just replacing existing facilities? BBC News
