Susysue- I agree with you! Clinical staff should have better access to reliable information, so clinical staff still refusing to get vaccinated at this stage (without a medical reason) should not need any support to role up their sleeves to get jabbed to protect their patients. I know of no clinical colleagues who are not vaccinated and rightly so! The few medical and nursing staff on the news refusing vaccination are a mystery to me. Not all staff who have patient contact or work in or near clinical areas have medical knowledge. Hospitals do not want to lose valued staff whatever their roles, due to fears gleaned from false information, or poor understanding of statistics, and hospitals have been trying to support staff -with virtual question and answer sessions, information data etc since before mandatory C19 vaccines were announced .
All NHS staff and anyone involved in clinical work in any setting is testing for C19 at least twice weekly as far as I know, Rosie- at least at present.
