BORIS Johnson was last night scrambling to save Christmas and end days of Cabinet squabbling over new Omicron rules. He slapped down a slew of his ministers who had suggested there could be no snog…
declared: “People can snog who they wish — it’s got nothing to do with the Government who you kiss.”
A Downing Street spokesperson said the nation should look at the Government guidance as it was set out at the weekend, adding: “There is nothing in the rules to prevent anyone having a Christmas party or socialising in that way.” And Royal College of Nursing council chairwoman Carol Popplestone argued that mixed messages from ministers could create “even more worry and confusion”.
The JVCI’s Prof Adam Finn said it was waiting for the green light from the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency. “It’s still causing substantial infection and hospitalisation in older people. Getting vaccinated, or a booster if eligible, is essential.”'People shouldn’t be cancelling things, there’s no need for that at all and it isn’t what we’re saying''If we decrease our social contacts a little bit, actually that helps to keep the variant at bay''If I was going to a party with 300 or 400 people for Christmas, I would take a test before I go''Of course Christmas is on track.
