🚨 Vaccination groups remain unchanged for Covid-19.
The JCVI have, again, failed to recommend that all Clinically Vulnerable people should be protected from the constantly evolving virus.
This goes against unchanged WHO 2024 guidance (see image).

And in response to headlines like "there is no need for masks", here is the 1 minutes from my interview where I discuss basic preventative measures (including masks!).
Also note that NHS stats like A&E and Ambulance waits are lower than same time 3 years ago, even with earlier flu wave.
