Carrie can make a point on jab safety

CARRIE JOHNSON has announced she is pregnant with her second child, and husband Boris’s seventh.

A day earlier, England’s Chief Midwife urged all expectant mothers to get vaccinated as soon as possible, as the Delta variant poses a significant risk to pregnant women. Less than a third have come forward for one dose so far, probably because the initial advice was not to. That changed in April with more safety evidence. Will Mrs Johnson use her large public profile to demonstrate how safe getting vaccinated now is by declaring that she has been? Who better.
