Dr. Ronan Glynn:

It is a key part of our response. Just to be clear - it is a key part of our response in the short term in particular. I hope that we will see a rapidly improving situation, particularly across Europe as countries step up their vaccination programmes over the next six to eight weeks as well. At least for the next six to eight weeks, we need to do all we can to keep the disease on the island under control and to prevent the introduction of variants as much as possible. We will not prevent the introduction of all variants but what we need to do is minimise that to the greatest extent possible.
