British health minister Sajid Javid has apologised for and deleted a tweet urging people to take a Covid-19 vaccine and not to "cower" from the virus, saying he had made "a poor choice of word".
Cases are high, but so is uptake of Covid-19 vaccines, and officials argue the shift is needed to help businesses in sectors such as hospitality and the night-time economy. I've deleted a tweet which used the word "cower". I was expressing gratitude that the vaccines help us fight back as a society, but it was a poor choice of word and I sincerely apologise.
Angela Rayner, deputy leader of Britain's Labour Party, was one of several MPs from opposition parties and people who had lost family members to the pandemic to criticise his use of the phrase "cower from". Roads across central London were closed as the runners in the Asics London 10k swept through the streets.
It is unbelievable to see the times, when the health and safety of citizens is decided by the lobbyists of pharmaceutical companies, corrupt politicians or journalists and media prostitutes, News show eminent doctors and scientists as crazy.A sad picture of the collapse the state
People should not cower from covid.
Definitely a sackable offence 🤷♂️
It’s a U-turn every Sunday, with this mob.
Must have gotten a few bob under the table. Either that or Pfizer have his wife hog tied in a safe house.
