kovi it has not really differentiated between the rich and the poor i have a clinic in wilmslow which is an affluent area and some of the people asking their parents have died or a parent has died and they're wondering how can i get a box ticking now i have been offered large sums to try and circumvent and see whether we can get the vaccine because dr it as we know goes on in this country but the government has bought the vaccine and there is no way to circumvent it but you know i think everyone you know would like to have the vaccine and even as agent and she comes with it people want to be safe people are scared. i think they would never want to take it away from the most vulnerable and there will always be the small few that may try and take advantage but i have to believe in the human connection human will that good will prevail and i think in general most drug fires have a good moral compass and want to help out when the n.h.s. would say can you help us now. a german lawmakers got a furious reaction from for suggesting that covert restrictions could be the template for fighting c

changes the role of the vaccine by any means the new vaccines are protective against all of the sars kovi 2 strains that are in circulation now and some of which have also mutated from the original one strain and so we don't have any reason to think that this mutation will allow the virus to evade the new vaccines on i want to be really waiting for my opportunity to be vaccinated one day soon i think we don't know yet we it's not as i said it's not uncommon for viruses to mutate during pandemic spread sometimes these mutations change the virus behavior they can become more or less transmissible more or less virulent or you. know cause more or less likely to cause severe symptoms usually not both of these things at once and a new advantage and one of these attributes usually comes at the expense of the other but i don't think we know the details yet and there's a lot more to learn and it's great that the u.k. is looking so closely and monitoring these aspects of the virus it's really important to make these quick sets materially quickly. and so hopefully we'll be knowing more in the next f
