as the booster programme continued in scunthorpe and around the country, there was a clearer message from the government about christmas in england. "go ahead with your plans, as there won't be any new measures affecting them." but, given the threat of 0micron, nothing can be ruled out after that. speaking before that announcement, one minister suggested they weren't rushing tojudgment. we are looking very closely at the data, that's why the prime minister said we reserve the option of coming back with further measures, but we are not at that stage, because obviously there is very significant economic disruption should we do that. merry christmas! that still leaves uncertainty around christmas and vital decisions affecting communities and families. we have to consider the risks of the omicron variant to individuals and the nhs, but we also have to consider the impact on people's mental health of restrictions. that cannot be ignored. as well as the impact on the economy. none of it is easy. with case number is rising fast, experts argue there may need to be interventions soon, but it
