The Business Secretary says talk about further restrictions is "completely unhelpful", adding that, because of the success of the vaccine roll-out, "I would rule out" there being another lockdown.
Officials are concerned by the slow booster vaccine roll-out. Pressure is building on the NHS as the number of people becoming eligible for their third jab remains higher than the number of doses being given out.
More than a third of England's upper tier local authorities have jabbed fewer than one in 10 healthy 12-15 year-olds as take-up rates currently stand at as low as 3.5%.
Ministers are hoping to improve the roll-out of Covid vaccines for healthy 12-15 year-olds – which has got off to a bumpy start – by opening walk-in vaccine clinics to this age group in the coming weeks.
Officials are disappointed with Premier League football for having what has been titled the "worst vaccination rate" in the world of sports and are considering how to increase uptake now that other measures have failed.
Dozens of MPs are set to meet with members of the Together Declaration tomorrow to demand that the Government never introduces vaccine passports, including as part of a winter 'Plan B'.
Looming vaccine mandates in the U.S. do not appear to be nudging workers into getting jabbed as quickly as officials had hoped. The agency responsible for screening air travellers says 40% of its workforce isn't jabbed.
60% of schools in England will fail to host Covid vaccinations by the Government's target date, according to a new survey. Uptake at schools that have been visited is around 35%.
'Green Passes' have come into force for workers in Italy. Strikes are expected as those who don't get 'jabbed', pay for cumulatively-costly tests or haven't recently recovered from Covid will be suspended without pay.
The Biden administration is quietly telling states to prepare to vaccinate 5-11 year-olds from next month, despite the fact the FDA hasn't yet decided whether to grant emergency use of the Pfizer jab in this age group.
