BREAKING NEWS: The terms of reference for the COVID19 inquiry have been updated to include the impact of the pandemic on mental health, and on children and young people. Live updates: 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube
The UK's COVID-19 inquiry will now examine the impact of the pandemic on mental health, and on children and young people, it has been confirmed in the updated terms of reference published today.
Baroness Hallett has recommended that the terms of reference be reframed to put possible inequalities at its forefront. YouTuber Grace Victory, 31, from High Wycombe, was placed in a coma by doctors on Christmas Day 2020 after delivering her son Cyprus just a day before, the BBC reports. Epidemiologist Tim Spector, the lead scientist and co-founder of the ZOE Covid Study app, said the nation was now witnessing"worrying levels" of mutations from the virus as the Omicron variant of COVID continued to change.
Alistair, 82, from Whitley Bay in Tyne and Wear, had been recovering from a spell in hospital with bowel issues when he and his son Mark, who had multiple sclerosis, contracted the virus. "I plan to sing at the funeral. I have written a song which I will perform also called 'Daddy' which is a tribute to him. I really want this to be a celebration of their lives and everything we shared together," she added.
Mr Biden said he understood the"pain of that black hole" left in the hearts of families who had lost loved ones and said the country could not"grow numb to such sorrow". "In remembrance, let us draw strength from each other as fellow Americans. For while we have been humbled, we never give up. We can and will do this together as the United States of America."More than half of hospitalised COVID patients experiencing symptoms two years after falling ill, study finds
Scientists also found that 31% of participants reported fatigue, muscle weakness or sleep difficulties two years after catching the virus. "Only 11% have been vaccinated in low-income countries and we set a target of 70%," Mr Brown told the BBC.
