NHS staff abused by people seeking second Covid jab early for holiday


Covid vaccinators are facing abuse, threats and aggression from people demanding their second jab early so they can go on holiday this summer, doctors have said. “This is despite the JCVI guidance which says that second dose vaccinations should not be given any earlier than this. A vaccination lead in London said: “There’s significant pressure from the public to give second doses early. One scientist warned on Thursday that those receiving their second jab sooner than eight weeks may be less protected against Covid. The NHS is vaccinating in line with JCVI guidance and has zero tolerance for bad behaviour towards any staff member.”
