LONDON: British Health Minister Sajid Javid was accused of insulting Koronavirus victims on Sunday after urging people to take the Covid-19 vaccine and “learn to live with, rather than curling, this virus”.
Javid, who replaced Matt Hancock as Minister of Health last month after his predecessor fell for violating Covid rules by kissing the assistant in his office, starting his work by urging people to learn to live with a virus.
Britain, which has one of the highest Covid official deadlock toll road, has shifted its strategy to fight Coronavirus from using restrictions to limit its spread to open the community on vaccine hopes to protect most people from serious illness.
The cases are high, but so after the Covid-19 vaccine, and officials think that shifts are needed to help businesses in sectors such as hospitality and the economy at night.
Writing on Twitter, Javid said on Saturday he had recovered after a positive test for Covid.
“The symptoms are very light, thanks to the extraordinary vaccine,” he said.
“Please – if you haven’t – get your Jab, as we learn to live with, not Colly from this virus.” Angela Rayner, the Deputy Labor Leader, is one of several parliamentarians from opposition parties and people who have lost family members to pandemics to criticize the use of phrases “from”.
“127,000 people have died of this virus, tens of thousands of them are still here if not for the failure of your government’s disaster,” he said on Twitter.
“So how dare you degrade people because they tried to keep themselves and their families safe.”
