will the vaccine rollout have to be restarted?

Dr Hopkins says there is work being
done to close down transmission of the new variant,
including additional testing.
She adds that on tweaked vaccines,
it is "unlikely" that they will have to
start the rollout again, saying it would
likely be a "booster shot".

She also asks Mr Hancock whether school
playgrounds should be opened if they can be done safely.

The health secretary says there
is "a lot of work to do together" adding
he understands the "implications of lockdown",
but appears to dodge the idea of at least
reopening playgrounds for children.]


Issues the SA strain and with other variants , concerns as regards vaccines, still 20,000+ dying each and every day - worrying stories surfacing about his badly the long term effects are - all this in a LOCKDOWN situation yet everyone just wants to reopen the schools .. I despair.

Our high school don’t even tell us how many staff / pupils are being tested positive and even when news slips out about one they keep the identity secret from the staff !!
