  4. It's certainly true that the initial #Covid19 vaccine roll-out was phenomenally successful.

    But I find it troubling that the government has largely given up on covid vaccines in more recent years.

    The vaccines have undoubtedly saved lives, but they don't have a brilliant duration of immunity. Regular boosters are essential to maintain protection.

    And regular boosters are no longer available on the NHS for the vast majority of us.

  9. "Largely listen to the health and medical advice as to what was likely to happen," said Rishi Sunak at today's ##CovidInquiry

    Apart from the 'Eat out to help out scheme', which he ignored and saw case numbers rise

    We remember, Mr Sunak
