Commenting ahead of the Welsh Government’s latest COVID review, Welsh Conservative Senedd leader, Andrew RT Davies said:
“The latest data indicates coronavirus cases in Wales are beginning to level off, and the Welsh Government’s most recent modelling predicts the current wave of delta infections is to peak by the end of this month.
“Given the fantastic vaccination programme, it’s vital ministerial focus remains on recovery and tackling the things that matter most to people across Wales such as NHS waiting list backlogs and our economic recovery.
“A swift and efficient rollout of booster jabs is now crucial to protecting lives, whilst ensuring our economy and public services can recover and operate without the reimposition of restrictions.
“It’s also imperative the First Minister brings forward his winter plan so the people of Wales can have confidence the Labour Government in Cardiff Bay can manage the pandemic and backlogs, as well as the inevitable winter pressures.”
On the potential introduction of vaccine passports, Davies added:
“Welsh Conservatives have been clear in our opposition to vaccine passports, and we would encourage Labour ministers to ditch any plans they might have to introduce them tomorrow.”
