  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.

    Our health is a sacrifice you're happy to make"

  8. "...the NHS in England came close to collapse during the height of the pandemic, only narrowly avoiding it due to the efforts of healthcare staff." A piece of information that often seems to get lost... #COVID19 #pandemic #COVIDinquiry

  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
