BRITS were tonight urged by the nation’s top doctor to cut down their socialising and meet outdoors if they can to stop the omicron spread.
Chris Whitty told the nation that it would be “sensible” for them be “prioritising social interactions that really matter to them” – urging them to ditch meetings to save Christmas gatherings.
At a gloomy press conference he said it was going to be more and more important as the nation get towards Christmas that “people take more precautions”.
He urged people to do the things that we know help stop the spread such as “really good ventilation, meeting outdoors… and following sensible rules.”
He added: “Don’t mix with people with people you don’t have to for either work or family things, for things that really matter to you.”
It came just two weeks after No10 refused to back Jenny Harries for saying friends and family shouldn’t meet up “when we don’t particularly need to” to slash the spread of omicron.
Her remarks prompted a firm slap-down from Downing St which said: “She gives advice to the government, she is not the government.”
The chaotic and confusing advice went far beyond Government guidance at the time.
