this is bbc news getjabbed for christmas — thousands of nhs staff and volunteers will keep vaccination clinics open over the festive period. the prime minister boris johnson encourages people to have a vaccine in his annual christmas message — saying it's a wonderful thing to do for ourfamilies. get that jab whether get thatjab whether it's your first or second or your booster so that next year festivities are even better than this years. in her first christmas broadcast since the death of prince philip — the queen is expected to give a very personal address tomorrow. a former minnesota police officer who claimed she confused her handgun for a taser has been found guilty of manslaughter for fatally shooting 20—year old daunte wright

and coming up, the most powerful telescope to ever be launched into space, is set for take off! hello and welcome if you're watching in the uk or around the world. nhs covid vaccination clinics will remain open tomorrow and throughout the holiday weekend in england, as people are continuing to be urged to getjabbed. 200,000 first, second or booster appointments can still be booked over the festive period. health service staff and volunteers will be giving vaccinations at scores of clinics, including town halls and pharmacies. record numbers of rapid lateral flow tests are being sent to people's homes every day but the uk health security agency acknowledges there are issues

with deliveries to some pharmacies. in his christmas message, boris johnson describes the jab as a "wonderful gift" that people can give to keep theirfamilies safe. the uk set another daily covid record yesterday with nearly 120,000 confirmed cases. here's our political correspondent, helen catt. the prime minister has said for a while that he believes this christmas would be better than last, and he said he won't flip the switch on any new restrictions in england before tomorrow. he's used his annual christmas message to urge us to take extra caution, though, and suggested getting a vaccine is in the christian spirit of the season. getting jabbed not just for themselves, for ourselves, but for friends and family and everyone we meet. that, after all, is the teaching ofjesus christ, whose birth is at the heart of this enormous festival, that we should love our neighbours as we love ourselves.

and so let's think of all those who are being good neighbours and thinking of others. in the 2a hours to yesterday, almost 120,000 new infections were recorded, a record high. and there were 147 deaths within 28 days of a positive test. in his christmas message, the labour leader said this year had been incredibly difficult for the country. in the darkest of times, christian values of kindness, of compassion and hope have shone through. communities have come together to help one another. key workers have saved countless lives. there is some positive news. the uk health security agency says that someone with 0micron is between 30% and 45% less likely to visit a&e than if they had delta and between 50% and 70% less likely to be admitted to hospital. but it warned that higher transmission could still mean significant numbers of people end up there. and it also suggested boosterjab protection wanes faster against 0micron than delta — 15% to 25% lower after ten weeks.

some vaccination centres will stay open throughout christmas. 200,000 slots are available between now and boxing day, according to nhs england, in what it's calling its jingle jabs campaign. scotland, wales and northern ireland have already announced that further restrictions will come into force from boxing day to tackle 0micron. so far, number ten has not followed suit, saying it continues to monitor the data, but it has not ruled out further measures after christmas. helen catt, bbc news, westminster. with me now is skipton dentist andy bates, who has been a volunteer vaccinator since the beginning of the year. thank of the year. you forjoining us. are you working thank you forjoining us. are you working as a dentist or vaccinated today? working as a dentist or vaccinated toda ? , ., �* ., , today? this morning, i've got my dentist hat _ today? this morning, i've got my dentist hat on _ today? this morning, i've got my dentist hat on and _ today? this morning, i've got my dentist hat on and this _ today? this morning, i've got my dentist hat on and this afternoon| today? this morning, i've got my| dentist hat on and this afternoon i will be at a vaccination centre. how are ou

therefore it is not prevented from infecting cells as much. this was the reason the booster programme was introduced, to increase the amount of antibodies because even though the antibodies do not bind as efficiently to the virus, they will still bind a bit so the more antibodies you have, the more virus you take out of circulation so that helps reduce infection but do not forget, the key thing with the vaccine is parts to it and the second part of the vaccine boosts the t cells and this is important because the cells take infected cells out of the body, kills off and protect you against severe disease and we think the killer t cell response will still be there. we know all the vaccines have been fantastic at protecting you against severe disease and that is the most important thing. boosters, keep on going. 3 important thing. boosters, keep on oiiin_ �* , , important thing. boosters, keep on anoin. m , important thing. boosters, keep on oiiin_ �*, , important thing. boosters, keep on ioini. �*, , , important thing. boosters, keep on iioin. �*, , , going. a simple message you must get our going. a simple message you must get your booster- — going. a simple message you must get your booster- dr _ going. a simple message you must get your booster. dr jenny _ going. a simple message you must get your booster. dr jenny harries - going. a simple message you must get your booster. dr jenny harries has - your booster. drjenny harries has told the bbc this morning that

infections are only beginning to tip into the older population and she has warned it's still not known if omicron will be significantly less series than delta for older people because we don't have the data. correct. potentially, this is good news, if omicron really is the less nasty and certainly what better christmas present could you have, but at the moment, the data on this small, predominantly in younger people so until we know how this pans out across the population, we are holding our breath but it is very interesting news. share are holding our breath but it is very interesting news.- very interesting news. are we lookin i very interesting news. are we looking at _ very interesting news. are we looking at fourth _ very interesting news. are we looking at fourth dose - very interesting news. are we looking at fourth dose prettyl very interesting news. are we - looking at fourth dose pretty soon? i know my own booster will come into that io—week period in the middle of january which is still peak winter, quite a dangerous time?— quite a dangerous time? that's really interesting. _ quite a dangerous time? that's really interesting. potentially, | quite a dangerous time? that's| really interesting. potentially, i think yes but it may only be rolled out to certain groups of people, for example older people who are at higher risk so i think that's going to be an interesting strategy for

the question of the moment, trying to understand how things will work out. ultimately we will have to learn to live with the virus and our health strategies to manage that will be important moving forward. the vulnerable people regularly have a flu booster every year, whether or not we will be in the same situation for covid—i9, i suspect we will but these are the kind of questions that need to be thought about carefully over the next 12 to 18 months. flan need to be thought about carefully over the next 12 to 18 months. can i si ueeze over the next 12 to 18 months. can i squeeze in — over the next 12 to 18 months. can i squeeze in one _ over the next 12 to 18 months. can i squeeze in one last _ over the next 12 to 18 months. can i squeeze in one last question? i over the next 12 to 18 months. can i squeeze in one last question? some people we know in ethnic minority populations are very vulnerable or have worse symptoms and we know elderly people are vulnerable. for people thinking i do not need to worry about omicron but i am mixing over christmas, what would your message be in terms of the unpredictability of how omicron can affect you? unpredictability of how omicron can affect ou? ., ., , ., ., , affect you? you have 'ust got to be really careful. h affect you? you have 'ust got to be really careful. the i affect you? you have just got to be really careful. the message - affect you? you have just got to be really careful. the message is i really careful. the message is please go and get your booster, take all the protective measures, get tested before you go and see people, do not go and see someone if you are positive. we have so many tools,

lateral flow tests are useful, take one of those before you go and see someone and make sure you are not positive before you go and this is the way to protect your loved ones, vaccination, testing, all these things will help us prevent passing on this virus to others.— on this virus to others. professor, thank you- _ on this virus to others. professor, thank you- i _ on this virus to others. professor, thank you. i hope _ on this virus to others. professor, thank you. i hope you _ on this virus to others. professor, thank you. i hope you have i on this virus to others. professor, thank you. i hope you have a i on this virus to others. professor, l thank you. i hope you have a lovely christmas. �* , ., the queen is expected to give a very personal christmas message tomorrow — her first since the death of her husband, prince philip. she will speak beside a framed photograph of the couple taken during their diamond wedding anniversary in 2007 — and will wear the same sapphire brooch that she wore on her honeymoon. 0ur royal correspondent nicholas witchell reports. for the queen, forced for a second year by covid to spend christmas at windsor rather than hosting herfamily at sandringham, this will be a moment to reflect on a year marked by sadness. her christmas broadcast, a still from which has been issued by buckingham palace, is expected to be a very personal one.

prominently on the desk beside her, a photograph of her and prince philip taken in 2007 when they celebrated their diamond wedding anniversary. philip's death last april, two months short of his 100th birthday and after 73 years of marriage, was the emotional low point of the year for the monarch. apart from a reference to him in her address to the cop26 conference, the queen has not so far spoken publicly about how much he meant to her. her broadcast may be an opportunity for her to do so. within the royal family, mindful that this will be the queen's first christmas without her husband, arrangements have been changed so that she won't be alone. clarence house has confirmed that the prince of wales and the duchess of cornwall willjoin her at windsor on christmas day. other members of the family may also be there. but absent, of course, will be the duke and duchess of sussex. from their home in california, they've issued this photograph wishing their supporters happy

holidays. it shows harry and meghan with their son archie and their daughter lilibet, pictured for the first time. and while the queen will doubtless look back on a year touched by personal sadness and some family tensions, she will surely also look to the future, to her platinum jubilee next year, marking her 70 years on the throne and another event which will be of particular significance for her — a service of thanksgiving for the life of the duke of edinburgh, which it's been announced will take place at westminster abbey in the spring. nicholas witchell, bbc news. a us police officer has been found guilty of manslaughter after she shot and killed daunte wright, an unarmed black man, in the state of minnesota earlier this year. kimberly potter maintained she had mistaken her handgun for a taser. 0ur north america correspondent, david willis, reports it was a routine traffic stop

on a sunday afternoon in april. police in a minneapolis suburb ordered 20—year—old daunte wright from his car and were attempting to arrest him when things went terribly wrong. as daunte wright tried to escape, the officer wearing the body camera, threatening to taser him. but only once she pulled the trigger, did she realise she'd mistaken her gun for a taser. kimberly potter was arrested three days after daunte wright died of a single gunshot wound to the chest. giving evidence in her own defence, she told the court the killing of daunte wright was a mistake. i remember yelling, taser, taser. daunte wright was a mistake. i rememberyelling, taser, taser. and remember yelling, taser, taser. and nothing happened. and then he told me i shot him.

sport and time now for a full round up from the bbc sport centre. here is jane dougal. good morning. premier league footballers should go on strike if they feel their welfare is not being considered. that's according to pep guardiola. his comments come after managers and captains met with the premier league yesterday to raise concerns about the congested christmas fixture list at a time when clubs are dealing with the impact of rising coronavirus cases. the manager said he did not think a strike would actually happen but the threat of it may be the only way to get the authorities to listen. it may be the only way to get the authorities to listen.— may be the only way to get the authorities to listen. it should be, the players _ authorities to listen. it should be, the players or— authorities to listen. it should be, the players or the _ authorities to listen. it should be, the players or the managers i authorities to listen. it should be, i the players or the managers together to make a strike, make something because the words, it is not going to resolve, the business is more important than welfare. simple example, all around the world, tell me one argument to take care, to

to hubble, which has given us amazing images. butjames webb is much more powerful. its mirror is almost three times bigger, which means it can reveal parts of the cosmos we've never seen before. gazing up into the heavens can help us to answer some of the biggest questions like where we come from and how did we get here? this space telescope will help us to look further back in time than ever before to 13 and a half billion years ago, revealing the light from the very first stars to shine. we'll be able to see the earliest galaxy formation and whether they spiral into space like our own milky way, and other planetary systems will also come into view, allowing us to discover whether life could exist on other worlds. scientists will be able to study every phase of cosmic history. we think that the first stars might actually be really huge and they will be burning really hot and really brightly and would die

very quickly, possibly with a huge explosion. but we haven't seen it yet and we really hope that this is something that we're going to find with the webb telescope. but before it can take any images, there's the most difficult task ahead. the telescope's so huge, to get it into a rocket, it's been folded up like origami. for it to unfurl in space, more than 100 release mechanisms need to fire at exactly the right time in the right order. if anything goes wrong, it's game over. we know there are many ways that it could fail. so that means to rehearse and rehearse and rehearse. we've unfolded it an folded it many times. we've examined it carefully. every time we say, well, that's not quite right, we'd better fix that. and it's extraordinarily challenging. the final preparations have been under way. it's an incredibly tight fit, as the rocket is tentatively lowered over the folded telescope. this is high stakes science, but if it works, it could lead to discoveries that scientists haven't even dreamt of. rebecca morrelle, bbc news.

like many people, politicians have been sending cards to support their favourite charities. there has been a lot of dicussion about what the images on the front mean, and the message the sender wishes to convey about themselves. let's take a look at a few with them with the daily mirror political correspondent aletha adu. thank you forjoining us. we are going to show everyone some of them. starting with borisjohnson. the card from downing street. we have a picture of their dog. not all of thejohnson children, but his pet. all of the johnson children, but his -et. ~ ., all of the johnson children, but his et, . ., ., ,., all of the johnson children, but his iet. . ., ., i. all of the johnson children, but his pet. what do you think? i guess the doi is pet. what do you think? i guess the dog is probably _ pet. what do you think? i guess the dog is probably the _ pet. what do you think? i guess the dog is probably the most _ pet. what do you think? i guess the dog is probably the most loved i dog is probably the most loved member of thejohnson family dog is probably the most loved member of the johnson family at the moment and i think it's a great thing that boris decided to go with making him the focus of this card.

after weeks of revelations, initiated by the daily mirror investigations and the downing street christmas party that took place last year, i think the public are quite tired of seeing boris johnson at the moment. especially doing the wrong thing. and that probably goes for carrie as well, she was pictured in a photo obtained by the guardian at another cheese and wine party in the first lockdown. this is a christmas that is particularly special for us because of last year. a lot of people have lost loved ones over the last year and during this pandemic. many people sharing photos, hugging people for the first time. i think it's right for people to have some time to themselves instead of looking at his face and his family. let's look at some more quickly. sir keir starmer. he has one of him clapping nhs staff, the same picture as last year, what do you make of
