Just when I thought 2020 was calming down, the Govt. is literally asking for powers to roll out untested vaccines, and even make them mandatory.
No, it isn’t. I had to read it and the attached document but it’s basically a massive fuck up in the way that statement is written.
The consultation is about whether they can unilaterally licence a vaccine for use in the U.K. before it has approval from the European licensing authority. And whether they can expand the definition of the persons who can be licensed to administer it. Or something.
The proposals we are consulting on:
Do not create powers to make receiving a COVID-19 vaccine mandatory for the UK population.
Do not create powers to rush through development of a vaccine
You should read the statement as ‘this consultation has nothing to do with the following whatsoever”. Not sure why they had to list off a whole load of things that people don’t like that the consultation has nothing to do with then cock the copy up to the point where it looks like that’s actually what the consultation is about but there you go. You couldn’t make this shit up.
Amazed that it passed editorial the way it currently is.
