Dr Alex Allinson discusses Omicron variant
The Island is 'heading in the right direction' in terms of Covid-19.
That's the view of the enterprise minister who says people shouldn't lose the feeling that we're over the worst of the pandemic despite the emergence of the Omicron variant.
'It's unfortunate that Boris Johnson had to stand up and do this declaration about the variant of concern.'
Dr Alex Allinson says the new rules on mask wearing and testing are based on 'common sense' and assures we can 'still look forward to Christmas':
