Labour says theres a strong case to vaccinate children aged between 12 and 15 against covid to prevent any further disruption to learning. Ministers have asked the chief medical officers of the uks four nations to consider the broader implications after the uks vaccines advisory body decided yesterday not to recommend jabs for all youngsters in that Age Group. James reynolds reports for many young teenagers in america, the highlight of a travel free Pandemic Summer may have been getting the covid jab. The us, israel and several European Countries have all pressed ahead with vaccinations for 12 to 15 year olds. Its difficult to maintain all measures like social distancing, etc. And we have seen earlier on, since a year ago in the summer, they are a group which often gets the disease first. Some parents here are in favour of jabs for all young teens. If it helps people feel less anxious, then they should do it, especially if they dont have to miss more school. Are you happy to have your children vaccinated . Yes. Because it will save their lives and other peoples lives. But the committee that advises on vaccination says from a medical Point Of View is not currently recommending jabs for all young teens. For the healthy children, the Risk Benefit Balance is really very uncertain and very tight. Normally what we do when we recommend vaccination for children is we see a very clear benefit that clearly outweighs any possible risk. In the absence of that clear blue water, if you like, between those two, we prefer to advise that healthy children should not for the moment be immunised. There are Three Million 12 15 Year Olds in the uk. Of these, Around 464,000 are currently eligible for a covid jab, either because they have an underlying Health Condition or because they live with someone who needs extra protection. So the vast majority of young teens, then, will begin the School Year without being vaccinated. Ministers are concerned that this may mean disruptive Covid Outbreaks in schools. The government has asked for specific scientific advice on the subject. A final decision is expected in the coming weeks. Days. In the wider pandemic, though, the Three Million in this young Age Group may not make the difference because among adults there are still Six Million people who have yet to receive their own firstjab. James reynolds, Bbc News. Stevejones is parent to a 13 year old who in fact turns 1a tomorrow. Steve is not in favour of teens receiving the vaccine for ethical reasons. My view is that a medical intervention needs to be done for Health Reasons benefitting the individual receiving that medical intervention. If the medical intervention potentially puts them at more risk than benefit, but then receiving that medical intervention benefits other people, i see that as dubious ethical territory. So what about the argument that there are significant Health Consequences in terms of two things, first if kids going to school and infect notjust other kids, but potentially adults, like teachers, and secondly, that the dis benefits mental health, and other consequences of yet more time off school . So, in terms of potentially infecting teachers, i have read studies concluded that the vocation of teaching was at no more risk from Contracting Coronavirus than any other. What is your second point . It was the broader mental and physical Well Being of being educated. So being off school again because they get infected. Notwithstanding the fact that symptoms are likely to be less severe. Broadly, that is true, isnt it . Likely to be less severe, but you still pay a price, as we have seen with the amount of disruption, and presumably your child has suffered that as well. Yes, absolutely, an awful lot. Yes, i would see that as you are being vaccinated not for individual health benefits, but almost to counter what is a policy decision, a government policy decision, to have bubbles, sending entire classes home. Again, i would go back to the ethics of that particular decision. Are we introducing this to benefit the recipient of the vaccine, or is it to benefit others . If we are introducing it to benefit others, then it is ethically dubious, to my mind. Dr chris cocking, is principal lecturer at the university of brighton. He is a social psychologist who has an interest in how people respond to mass emergencies. He said there should be a clearer messaging. What concerns me about the current narrative with thisjcvi decision, it seems to be focusing mainly on individual choice. We are in a global pandemic which requires global action to stop transmissions, and are concerned that the element of it, the collective responsibility, which myself and other colleagues who research these kinds of emergencies and pandemics have found, and it is absolutely vital to have that collective sense of responsibility to be able to stop transmissions. But when it comes up, that sense of individual responsibility, i would not want to put words into steves mouth, because i did not ask him, but there will be other parents to say that they should be the bottom line of parental responsibility. As parents, they are responsible for their children, and that should should be respected. For example regarding vaccination. There is a broader context to consider, were talking about public health here, so the two are inextricably you cannot separate them, there will be public Health Consequences if you encourage individual decision making, and this is something this government did with freedom day, for example, and the individual responsibility to wear masks or not, it is the collectivity of what we have found is that is crucial in these situations to have a collective response to the situation and the emergency. In terms of the public debate that needs to happen, were being told that this is being put to the cmo, they will be expected to come up with a response quickly, but then it will be politicians, prime minister, Secretary Of State for health, to say what they will do for the policy. In terms of communicating that, what do you think needs to be said . Does It Matter which way they go . What youve said is, actually, it is about the message project, in terms of whether you get that Messaging Right . Yes, it is vital to encourage a collective message and before a collective message and for that, politicians need to show good leadership and they need to provide consistent messages and not provide mixed messages. The danger with this view of thejcvi is it could send out mixed messages which is confusing to people. Also it will mean that those who are already vaccine hesitant May Cherry Pick Information that suits a particular perspective they have. It is vital that politicians show Leadership And Research that myself and others have found on emergencies like this is that if people are presented with adversities, saying things are bad, this is what you need to do, people can and will comply with that, as We Saw, with the very high Compliance Rate in the first lockdown, which the authorities were not expecting, and delayed lockdown as a result, when, at the time, people will adhere to the restrictions if you are consistent and present a rationale for why people need to do it and why it is important. That requires good leadership from government. In the last couple of minutes and we have had the last latest figures of infection and deaths from the government, so there were 30 7000, 578 infections reported on the 27 hours into saturday morning, and that means that cases reported between was the 29th Of August were up between was the 29th Of August were up from the previous seven days. Hundred 27 people are reported to have died in the 2a hours to saturday having previously positive up saturday having previously positive up to a month before. More people have received the vaccine, and that is The End of friday, by The End of the month, and 43. 2. 5 Million people had received a second dose. A Doctors Union is calling for the government to take urgent action, over delays to the delivery of the winter Flu Jab, and to hold a meeting of the Emergency Cobra Committee to discuss the problem. Some Gp Surgeries in england and wales have already begun cancelling appointments for the Flu Vaccine, after one of the uks largest suppliers warned of a possible two Week Delay getting supplies through. Daniela relph reports. The message is clear, but actually getting your Flu Jab is now riddled with delays in many areas. More than 35 Million people will be offered the Flu Vaccine on the nhs this autumn and winter. But delays in delivering the vaccinations to Gp Surgeries will now mean appointments and Flu Clinics are postponed. I think it could be a real issue for patients and for General Practice, and that, of course, if General Practice is in trouble, then patients are in trouble. Because its notjust a question of delaying it, its all the cancellations of the many, many clinics, the many appointments which have already been booked in. Seqirus supplies vaccines to gps and pharmacies in england and wales. It has warned that Road Freight challenges have disrupted their work. There simply arent enough Lorry Drivers to make the deliveries. The concern is even a short delay could increase pressure on the nhs and, ultimately, cost lives. Clearly, Influenza Immunisation this year is really important, and the reason its so important is because weve had, because of lockdowns, weve had very low circulating Influenza Levels last winter. And so, we do know when there are low circulating Influenza Levels the year before, often we get high Infection Rates in the following years. On top of these latest delays, surgeries are already limiting Blood Tests due to a chronic shortage of test tubes. Doctors� leaders are critical of the governments handling of the disruption. We are Hearing Nothing from the politicians, and the bma actually is calling for the government to have a Cobra Meeting because within the space of two weeks, weve seen two major crises of cancellations of Blood Tests and now Flu Jabs, and we want to hearfrom our politicians and hear why there are no contingency plans. Gp surgeries now face managing further delays and cancellations, as well as the Worry And Anxiety of their patients. Daniela relph, Bbc News. Mike padgham is the chair of the independent care group. He outlined the knock on impact that the delay to the Flu Vaccination Roll out could have on the care sector. I spoke to him in aragon. An hour ago. We know that Flu Jabs are very important and to delay them is problematic. When you combine that with the delay that we see on the Covid 19 boosters, it is just another worry for us going into the winter, we need to make sure residents and staff are protected, so its another concern we have. As we know from the past, if the care sectors not in a position to receive people, because of outbreaks, whether of influenza or hopefully not of Covid 19 again, that has a Knock On Effect of the Health Service as well. Yes, Social Care and the Health Service have to work very closely together to help each other, so if we are weakened because of a Flu Or Covid 19 outbreak, that impacts the nhs. The key thing for us is that we are running on empty with staff, so we cant afford to lose any more staff because there is a haemorrhaging out of the sector because of the compulsory vaccinations, and it is a challenging time. Ive been in the sector for over 30 years and this is the worst ive ever known it. But the sad thing is that the government doesnt seem to recognise what is happening. We just want to work with the government and the nhs to help, but we are finding it difficult. Two divers are presumed to have died after they failed to return to the surface while exploring a wreck off the cornwall coast. The pair were diving Around the Hms Scylla Which was sunk in 2004 to create an offshore reef. A major Search Operation off Whitsand Bay continued into the early hours of this morning. A Police Officer has been seriously injured following a collision on the m62 near goole overnight. North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service said its crews freed the male officer from the wreckage. Hes been taken to hospital. Phil bodmer has more this happened at Around 11 30pm last night. The eastbound section of the m62 remains close, nearly 14 hours after the incident took place. West Yorkshire Police have told us that two of the fast response cars were involved in a collision with a red Seat Ibiza. It was Around 11 30pm. Hundreds of motorists were trapped in the resulting Traffic Chaos and has to be freed eventually by Highways England officers. During that collision, one would presume it was high speed, one of the Patrol Cars hit a bridge extension. You can see from the pictures of the the extent of the wreckage from both the red Seat Ibiza and indeed the patrol car. Because of the nature of this event, the independent 0ffice car. Because of the nature of this event, the independent office for Police Conduct is involved in this investigation. We know that the Police Officer in one of the response cars suffered a serious injury, we understand, to a leg, not life threatening, but there were four people in the Seat Ibiza, three sustained injuries, two managed to free themselves, and two others had to be freed by the emergency services. We understand one has serious neck and back injuries. At the moment, we suspect the open motorway we suspect the most we will open in the next hours, but this eastbound M62 Section of the motorway is advised to be avoided. The headlines on Bbc News labour says there is a strong case for offering all 12 15 Year Olds covid vaccinations to prevent further disruption to their learning. The governments scientific advisors do not to support it. The British Medical Association calls for the government to hold an emergency Cobra Meeting as gps delay Flu Jabs because a shortage of hgv drivers has disrupted supplies.

She broke her own World Record to retain the 100m Crown last sunday. She joked afterwards that she was gutted that she was unable to get the World Record today. Her Team Mate, Kara Adenegan, recorded a personal best though as she won the silver. I have been told to since i was born the things that i cant do and im now a Gold Medallist and, you know, world champion, World Record holder, all the rest of the things and ijust want to see how far i can push it, how fast can i go .

In afghanistan, the international community is trying to co ordinate how it will respond to the Taliban Regime as the group continues to send fighters to crush the last remaining organised resistance in the country. In the Panjshir Valley, anti taliban groups, including former members of the armed forces, are being attacked by taliban fighters. The taliban has released this video, which it says was filmed near one of the valleys key settlements, showing its fighters advancing with captured us humvees, although its not known when this was happening. A spokesman for the anti taliban groups says the clashes are ongoing, but the taliban are being pushed back. Meanwhile, the us secretary of State Antony Blinken has begun a trip which will take him to doha in qatar a country which has hosted the taliban during negotiations before heading to europe. There hell try to work out how to approach the taliban, even with the European Union and the uk having said they will not recognise them as the legitimate rulers of afghanistan. Qatar has helped to repair the Airport Runway in kabul, and the head of Pakistans Intelligence Services Faiz Hameed has arrived in the city. Pakistan has long been accused of creating and supporting the taliban. Its leaders are now finalising its government. But with huge amounts of foreign aid, which underpinned the countrys economy, now being withdrawn, pressure is growing for them to ensure notjust human rights. Economic rights as well. Take a listen to these residents of kabul. Translation our demand from the islamic emirate i is to activate the schools and universities for students and to providejobs for the people. We want them to prevent armed robberies and to reduce killings. Translation security is good all over the country, the people are happy, but the lack of work and the Non Announcement of the government, thats worrying people. Everyones confused and people dont know what the future of the homeland will be because, well, everyones confused. The view on the streets of kabul. Our Correspondent Danjohnson whos monitoring events from delhi says claims of who is in control of the Panjshir Valley will be hard to verify because the area is remote and has in the past been a citadel of resistance. Absolutely, yeah, somewhere that is even well defended, well known for its resistance to any forces taking over that particular valley. That is why the taliban was not able to get control of it last time, or three weeks ago, when kabul fell, but the taliban does seem determined to push its way into that valley and to snuff out the resistance. There are contested claims about exactly what the situation there is. We know there has been fierce fighting, some serious injuries, hundreds of fighters injured on both sides of this, but the taliban yesterday were saying that it had succeeded, that it had won Victory Yesterday and all the Resistance Fighters had surrendered, but then some of those fighters, some prominent figures within the resistance have argued back saying, no, were still here, we are not surrendering, we will continue fighting. It looks like that battle is not yet over. There may be more bloodshed as the taliban seem determined to try to get a grip on every last square of afghanistan. Meanwhile, a group of Afghan Women Protesting In Kabul have been confronted by Armed Taliban members. Reports say tasers and Tear Gas were used, and protesters can be seen coughing and covering their mouths. Many afghan women have voiced concerns about restrictions they might face after the taliban seized power. Lets go back to our top story and the debate Around covid vaccines for children between the ages of 12 and 15. Katie hill is a mum of two children who are 12 and 13. She is right in the heart of it. Katie, thank you for being with us on Bbc News. Let me first ask you what your general feeling about vaccinating the Age Group your children are now against Covid 19 . Hello, thank you for having me. From a personal Point Of View, as a parent, i think it is a really great idea. When you think back to when we didnt have the vaccine, when it was being developed, we are going to have to live with Covid 19 in some form or other, and we need to mitigate the risks of vaccination, facemasks in public places, i have spoken to both my children about it, they are both keen to have the vaccine, if and when they offered it. ,. ,. , vaccine, if and when they offered it. , i.

Everyones missed out on the social interaction which is a huge part of the reason why we go to school, we go to nursery, preschool, and it is a worry. I think we need to keep that disruption to a minimum and going forward, ensure that we have a good framework in place to support pupils, the staff, everybody, so all singing from the Hate Singing from the same hymn sheet, so to speak and the strategies to deal with this and keep having to keep Everyone Safe.

It is starting to thin and break, so we should have a pause. Some of this cloud is thinning a little, so glimpses and sunshine. You can see the difference where you keep the cloud, with the temperatures of 15 or16, highs cloud, with the temperatures of 15 or 16, highs of 22 or 23. As we move into sunday, the change is coming. The High Pressure drifts away, the south Easterly Breeze will introduce some warm air from the continent and a Weather Front some warm air from the continent and a weatherfront springs some warm air from the continent and a Weather Front springs some needed rain into Northern Ireland and north west scotland. Gradually in the morning and turning quite heavy as we go into the afternoon. Elsewhere it will be about the sunshine as we go through tomorrow, highs are likely of 25 degrees, 77 fahrenheit.
