50,000+ daily Covid cases. 500,000+ self-isolating. Hospitalisations & deaths rising sharply.

Yet the Tories are pressing ahead with the “bonfire” of restrictions on Monday. Global health experts have called this an “unethical experiment”.

This reckless plan must be abandoned.

This morning I tested positive for Covid. I’m waiting for my PCR result, but thankfully I have had my jabs and symptoms are mild.

Please make sure you come forward for your vaccine if you haven’t already. pic.twitter.com/NJYMg2VGzT

Fantastic to visit Aashna House care home today. I’m not just the Health Secretary – I’m the Social Care Secretary too and I’m determined to do all I can for staff, residents and families across the country. pic.twitter.com/VChWOXVs6R

For the record, I believe Johnson’s decision to force through the withdrawal of Covid regulations on Monday to be an act of criminal folly that will cost many lives and with the rise of long Covid will cause serious harm to hundreds of thousands of members of our community.

Today the Government unleashes its dangerous strategy of deliberately allowing millions more people to get Covid.

The government must be held to account for the wave of deaths, hospitalisations, Long Covid cases and economic damage this will cause.

This is on them.
