i only heard about it, - that it comes into force this morning at four o clock. this is taking money out of my pocket again that i don t have. people will have to pay for pcr tests, and some travel industry leaders are calling for them to be made available on the nhs for travellers. others say they have not had enough notice of the changes. unfortunately, the industry does not get information in good time, ahead of government announcements, so we can make sure customers are where they need to be in order to get them back in time, so incredibly difficult and incredibly frustrating. the uk isn t the only country to introduce new restrictions. british people planning skiing holidays to switzerland now face the prospect of quarantining for ten days on arrival. and from tomorrow, you will have to be fully vaccinated to go to spain. no one knows for certain the risks of this new variant, but many countries are taking no chances.
suggested a target of 3.5 million jabs per week to touch a gp surgery this morning the prime minister said much was still uncertain about the new variants. much was still uncertain about the new variants- new variants. while there is doubt about what new variants. while there is doubt about what exactly new variants. while there is doubt about what exactly the new variants. while there is doubt about what exactly the variant i new variants. while there is doubt about what exactly the variant can i about what exactly the variant can do, what we do know is that the boosters can give a lot of protection against all types of the virus and we think that is overwhelmingly likely at any weight, so the crucial thing is that everybody now comes out and gets boosters. ., , everybody now comes out and gets boosters. . , , h, , boosters. ramping up the booster programme boosters. ramping up the booster programme will boosters. ramping up the booster programme will be boosters. ramping

for the nhs? yes, it is a huge i challenge. it is notjust offering boosters to all adults which will be prioritised in order of agent clinical need but there is the author of second doses to those over 12 and fourth doses for those with weakened immune system. the uk currently administers around 2.5 million visitors per week so it could take about three months to boost everyone at that rate, well into the winter when the nhs is busiest, so health officials want to bump it up and get ahead of a possible wave of omicron but the workforce is the limiting factor. gps were responsible for the majority of vaccinations, they have gone back to their dayjob. asking to prioritise vaccinations again could have an impact, could be people waiting longer for a people waiting longerfor a doctor. it will be a case of all hands on deck. pharmacists, community nurses and maybe even the retired, to get back to the 3.5 million jabs per week we saw in march. in northern
