THANKS to the NHS, over 25 million people in the UK have now had their first dose of a Covid vaccine.
But with so many of us having had the jab, and with Easter approaching, you might be surprised to learn that if you stay overnight with a family member outside your household before May 17, you will be committing an offence.

Why are restrictions tougher than they were last Summer – before we had the Covid vaccine?
The scientists tell us that the vaccines save lives, yet our success at rolling it out is not translating into a return to normal life.
If the Government wants the law to force us to stay at home this Easter, it must state – loud and clear – that it wants the police to enforce these rules.
Politicians must not pass laws and then blame the police for doing their job.
The Government have just announced that they want to renew the powers of the Coronavirus Act for another six months until the end of September, giving the police the power to detain each of us indefinitely.
I cannot support this extreme and unnecessary law given that only a month ago the Prime Minister promised that we were on a “one-way road to freedom” by June 21.
‘Britain is better than that’
The Government has now said you can go to the Euros this Summer as long as you have a vaccine certificate.
If we accept this, they will demand papers when you go to the pub, or for certain jobs.
I do not want to live in a two-tier Britain that prevents pregnant women from taking part in society, given that the Government is telling them not to take the vaccine.
Sun readers have never been more important.
Now is the moment for you to demand freedom from your MP, and to say never again to lockdowns when the Government hasn’t proven they are doing more good than harm.
This has been a devastating year.
Just like the disease, lockdowns and restrictions have caused huge damage to people’s welfare, health and livelihoods.
But we risk a whole lot more if we allow the Government to impose draconian and discriminatory rules and to arbitrarily shut down our society at a moment’s notice.
Britain is better than that.
