UK Health Secretary Sajid Javid said on Oct. 25 that he was “leaning towards” introducing mandatory COVID-19 vaccination for staff of the National Health Service (NHS).

The UK government is “considering” imposing a vaccine mandate on the 100,000 NHS staff who haven’t yet received their first CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus vaccine dose, Javid said.
