Staff shortages are “paralysing” health and social care services in the UK and the COVID-19 vaccine mandate for frontline staff must be abandoned, a British social care boss has warned.

CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus vaccination has been made a condition of employment in care homes in England since November 2021. The same rule will come into effect on April 1 for National Health Service (NHS) and other health care workers, meaning unvaccinated frontline health care workers will face redeployment or dismissal.
