So glad about this important judgement. It should give us all the courage to do what needs to be done, to fulfil our own duty of care to the public, calling on our political leaders to act now to avoid climate catastrophe.

Commenting on reports on mixing vaccines, Dr Mary Ramsay, Head of Immunisations at PHE, said: “We do not recommend mixing the COVID-19 vaccines – if your first dose is the Pfizer vaccine you should not be given the AstraZeneca vaccine for your second dose and vice versa.”

Johan Giesecke gives the view from Sweden. The controversial Swedish approach is often regarded as completely laissez-faire. These slides (thread) show that it is not. This shows the regulations, the next slides show recommendations (which are widely implemented).
