‘Anti-Vaxxers Are Nuts’: UK PM Boris Johnson
Britain’s Prime Minister Boris Johnson gestures during his visit to the Tollgate Medical Centre in Becton, east London on July 24, 2020.. British Prime Minister Boris Johnson on Friday described people opposed to vaccinations as “nuts”, as he promoted the government’s expanded programme of flu jabs.
The vaccine will be free for the most vulnerable groups, including older people, those with underlying conditions, and younger children. Chief medical officer Chris Whitty said vaccination was a way of helping reduce “all avoidable risks”, with coronavirus still circulating, and no vaccine yet available.
In 2019, the World Health Organization identified “vaccine hesitancy” as one of the top 10 global health threats in tackling preventable diseases.
