This past year and a half, I’ve been absolutely in awe of the utter selflessness that our young people have shown in the fight against coronavirus – jobs have been lost, education disrupted, plans put on hold.文章源自英文巴士-https://www.en84.com/11609.html

You’ve had the challenge of making social distancing and self-isolation work in shared flats and houses, of meeting new people and trying to form new friendships without bursting any bubbles.文章源自英文巴士-https://www.en84.com/11609.html

Students have been forced to adapt to new ways of learning while missing out on many of the rites of passage that many of us took for granted.文章源自英文巴士-https://www.en84.com/11609.html

And of course, so much of what usually makes it ‘very heaven’ to be young – the nights out, parties, the holidays, festivals, all that kind of thing – that’s all been set aside. And you’ve done it all, you’ve put up with it all, not out of self-interest, because actually most young people are among the least at risk from the virus, but because you wanted to do the right thing by the rest of the country.文章源自英文巴士-https://www.en84.com/11609.html

I know it hasn’t been easy. I don’t, for one moment, underestimate the impact this pandemic has had on your lives. But I can say for sure, there are people alive today in your town, in your neighbourhood, maybe even in your family, who are only with us because you chose to do the right thing.文章源自英文巴士-https://www.en84.com/11609.html
So I want to say thank you, thank you from me, thank you from the Government, thank you from the whole nation. And I want to ask one more thing of you. And that’s to go and get vaccinated. Since Christmas, you’ve been waiting patiently while your parents, your grandparents, great grandparents and everyone else lined up for their jabs, now it’s your turn.
This week, England is opening up vaccinations to everyone aged 18 or over. And wherever you are in the UK, you could log on to nhs.uk to see the latest information and book yourself an appointment when you’re eligible.
We’re not out of the woods yet, but after a long and difficult journey, the end is finally in sight. So keep going and following the rules, as you have for so long. Get your jabs as soon as you can, and let’s finish this thing together so we can get on with building back better, greener, fairer than ever before.
