  • 25/07/2021

UK Health Secretary Sajid Javid, who had been in self-isolation after testing positive for Covid-19, posted an update on Twitter to announce his “full recovery” but his choice of words in the post sparked anger .Javid, 51, said people should no longer "cower" from coronavirus as he urged everyone to get their vaccine doses to protect against the deadly virus."Please – if you haven't yet – get your jab, as we learn to live with, rather than cower from, this virus," he wrote in a tweet, which he deleted on Sunday and issued an apology after he was accused of insensitivity towards people following lockdown rules.129,000 Brits have died from Covid under your government's watch. Don't denigrate people for trying to keep themselves and their families safe," said Labour’s Shadow Justice Secretary David Lammy.
