Hospitals are declaring critical incidents over staff shortages as Omicron cases soar, yet complacent Boris Johnson seems determined to do nothing but stick to a mild Plan B of masks and minor restrictions in England.
As UN global health ambassador and Labour former Prime Minister Gordon Brown makes clear in today’s Daily Mirror, the pandemic is far from over and Britain, along with other countries, has a vested and moral interest in sharing vaccines and testing technology to stop the global death toll hitting 10 million.
Questions about the current PM’s reckless rule-breaking and poor behaviour remain despite No10’s insistence that he obeyed isolation regulations this time last year.
We are cautiously optimistic the worst is over, but slapdash Johnson is not reassuring.
