Is there an announcement at 5?

[november90]

My friend has just told me that she's seem across social media there's an announcement tonight regarding support bubbles?
I can't find anything online so I'm inclined to think it's gossip.... but also panicking a little!
Anyone know if there's an announcement tonight?

Yes, I think there is , I haven’t heard what it’s about though.

Matt Hancock at 5pm.

Its Matt Hancock so it may just be giving himself a pat on the back about the vaccine hubs that opened today. Boris normally does the rule changing ones i think.

I though it was just a daily briefing with updates about the vaccine rollout.

They said last week it will be a daily update on vaccines, those who have had it, where they’ve had it and in which category.

I thought it was more a daily update press
conference about vaccine roll out than any major announcement. Though there has been a lot of talk about restrictions tightening..

Daily briefing the rumours are sure mongering

Scare

Where are you?

I googled "press bre...." and before I'd typed anything else this comes up

But maybe it only works in Engalns

I'm looking forward to daily updates on the vaccines. I know they will be trying to scare the crap out of us in the hope it will make people ignoring the rules listen!

Despite our disastrous start at testing we are now doing more tests per 1000 people than most countries. Hopefully the vaccine rollout will ramp up as well.

It will be about the new vaccine hubs surely, they said there would be daily briefings last week, I doubt they will just pop in about support bubbles. There will likely be a pep talk about following the rules though

Just a standard daily briefing. It's like people get excited at the thought of more rules!

The bad news time slot is 8pm, so I wouldn’t worry.

We'll be doing homeschooling I'm afraid

Thanks for the replies everyone! Definitely a lot of scare mongering going about isn't there?
Hope everyone is doing well
