SIR – A wealth of qualified people have volunteered to vaccinate (though many seem to have been ignored). It would be a disaster for family doctors to “cease routine care in race to deliver 14 million jabs” (report, January 7). People must not wait for serious diagnoses, nor would their GPs want them to. Covid kills but so do many other medical conditions.

SIR – How refreshing on Thursday to see Sir John Bell, Oxford’s Regius Professor of Medicine, on the BBC being optimistic about vaccination and life in the future. The BBC usually dishes out hours of doom and gloom. We need to see more people like Sir John Bell.
