UK PM: 'looking at' cutting COVID-19 isolation period

Asked about cutting the isolation period from seven days to five days, he said: "We're looking at that." But he added that the government would follow the science.

Pregnant women are being encouraged to get a booster vaccine in a new advertising campaign being launched by the government to highlight the risks of catching the virus unvaccinated.

Department for Health and Social Care Chief Scientific Advisor, Lucy Chappell said, ''when you look at the risks and benefits of COVID 19 for pregnant women and the vaccine, it's clear that getting vaccinated is the safest thing to do.''
