First of all, we have been encouraging people to get vaccinated. We’ve been providing information and encouraging people to reach out to their neighbors because vaccines work and they will help people, but it should be a personal health care choice.

If someone doesn't want to get vaccinated, I have no desire to hold them down and to force them to be vaccinated but they should make sure that they don't harm others, they either get the jab or they have to get two tests per week ; they have to mask up. But we should absolutely make sure that if you make a decision not to be vaccinated that you just have no right to go unmasked and unvaccinated in a crowded work place.

Almost half the people over 18 have had their first jab.
