i agree with him on this. Applying the same testing and isolation requirements on those fully vaccinated as they do to someone unvaccinated is completely stupid.

In response to his remarks, a senior government source told the PA news agency: "Once again Mr Blair appears to have learned of things already in the pipeline and decided to publicly call for them.

"It's becoming something of a habit. Nonetheless we thank him for his continued support."

American author Naomi Wolf has been suspended from Twitter after spreading vaccine misinformation.

Dr Wolf, well known for her acclaimed third-wave feminist book The Beauty Myth, posted a wide-range of unfounded theories about vaccines.

One tweet claimed that vaccines were a "software platform that can receive uploads".

She also compared Dr Anthony Fauci, the top Covid adviser in the US, to "Satan" to her more than 140,000 followers.

Most recently, she tweeted that the urine and faeces of people who had received the jab needed to be separated from general sewage supplies while tests were done to measure its impact on non-vaccinated people through drinking water.
On the topic of children wearing masks, she tweeted that she was "seeing kids with their lower faces hanging inertly, absolutely unmoving facial muscles, when they take their masks off".

Dr Wolf was also duped into tweeting a made up quote on an image of an American adult film star dressed up as a doctor.

Her suspension has been welcomed by many on the platform.

Professor Gavin Yamey tweeted that he was "pleased", adding that "Dr Wolf peddles horrific, dangerous anti-vaxx nonsense".

But some have voiced concern that her suspension was stifling free speech.

Journalist Mary Beth Pfeiffer said Dr Wolf "raised damn good questions about the rush to and ramifications of mass vax. This is unAmerican silencing of dissent".

In 2019, the US publisher of a book by Dr Wolf cancelled its release after accuracy concerns were raised.

During a BBC radio interview, it came to light that the author had misunderstood key 19th Century English legal terms within the book.

They obviously can’t be mandatory, but there should definitely be social sanctions against those that refuse to have it, they shouldn’t be allowed to fly for example

Hancock said on Marr hospital admissions are flat and most do not need critical care as they are younger

a 14 person increase in a week is not massive by any stretch

i think its crazy to talk about % increases on what are tiny numbers ... it's scaremongering as usual. As long as the hospitalisations and deaths remain at manageable levels, everything is fine.

Lets not forget that lockdowns etc were to stop the NHS being overwhelmed, and its nowhere close to being under pressure at the moment

It’s a fair point but those % were over just 7 days - I dread to think what the % rate would be over a year.

I agree to an extent, anything from 0-30 at the moment could be down to reporting or anything really. If we start creeping over 50 again though... that’s obviously significant.
