Ministers face repeated calls to clarify in which jobs people can avoid isolation if fully vaccinated
Ministers have been accused of sowing further confusion for councils and companies struggling to keep services running, as it was revealed no list will be published of “critical workers” who can leave isolation if double-vaccinated.
With cases rocketing and hundreds of thousands of people forced into isolation, the government had faced pressure from Tory MPs to bring forward the date when those who have been fully vaccinated will not need to quarantine – currently scheduled for 16 August in England.
