mutations. it is a bit unclear as to how the biology will play out. share how the biology will play out. are we laruel how the biology will play out. are we largely dependent on the booster programme now? is that thing that is going to kinda put 0micron under control, for want of a better phrase. sajid javid was on yesterday and said a third of the population had had the boosters. there have been indications it will tackle or neutralise 0micron. the been indications it will tackle or neutralise omicron. neutralise omicron. the third booster is neutralise omicron. the third booster is needed. neutralise omicron. the third booster is needed. we - neutralise omicron. the third booster is needed. we are i neutralise omicron. the third i booster is needed. we are getting neutralise omicron. the third - booster is needed. we are getting 20 to 40 fold drops in ability of vaccine antibodies to neutralise the virus. the third dose can partially overcome that. that is why they are being pro
in a way, even if 0micron were not we still do need the boosters in the context of delta. really 0micron has increased the impetus press all to get vaccinated a third time.- get vaccinated a third time. thank ou ve get vaccinated a third time. thank you very much get vaccinated a third time. thank you very much for get vaccinated a third time. thank you very much forjoining - get vaccinated a third time. thank you very much forjoining us. i get vaccinated a third time. thank you very much forjoining us. l get vaccinated a third time. thank. you very much forjoining us. for you very much forjoining us. for us all. the guide dogs charity, which helps the visually impaired, has warned that electronic scooters pose a serious threat and could cause fatal injuries. the charity is calling for tougher action to tackle illegal riding of e scooters, after conducting a study on the impact of a collision with pedestrians. helena wilkinson reports. this test crash shows just how devastat
