piece it goes on about his history and all he was bullied when he was younger and all this sort of stuff but it makes mention of stuff like here saying that having entered parliament in NUMBER_TOKEN he had to wait a long time to get into the cabinet he rose to prominence as vaccine minister at the height of the pandemic when his networking skills came into play is that the same way that everyone ends up in the cabinet yes but obviously it doesn't paint a great picture no of the uh parliamentary process but that's how it works but he stated here already the number of uh children at school uh children off school has risen by NUMBER_TOKEN to two hundred and four thousand in the past fortnight making it sound like that's all covered's fault and he's that uh he was asked that does he think it will get worse and could schools close again my focus is to protect protect education in the way that we protected the nhs to keep those schools open the attendance is just about NUMBER_TOKEN i'll have to keep a very close eye on the infection rates we have contingency plans in place what are those contingency plans and he makes some uh mention here millions of children aged NUMBER_TOKEN to NUMBER_TOKEN have been vaccinated in europe and america but the government scientists came out and said that they shouldn't do that yes but they're not particularly they're not great fans of that particular piece oh i'm not trusting the science no no that's uh against the idea of vaccinating children yes i mean he did state in my view it's the right thing to do to protect their mental well-being and education but not to prevent coders not protect them against the disease and yeah and it does come across like a threat yeah as emotionally as most things do we need to protect your children's mental well-being and if you don't do what what we say we'll lock them up in their homes where their mental well-being will do great i suppose well we know it got worse over the lockdowns exactly and that's bad for their education as well so like oh man it does come across like a threat doesn't it it does uh but let's contrast this how the uk is doing which is not well with how scandinavia is doing which seems to be pretty well in all regards to this right as you can see here norway has uh from the NUMBER_TOKENth of september decided to remove all lockdown restrictions they stated the country will remain in increased state of preparedness but all national coronavirus measures will end this includes the advice to keep at least one metre distance away from others the limiter capacity limit on public and private spaces and restrictions on opening times for bars and restaurants the short version is we can now live as normal said prime minister anna solberg that makes quit uh note that local restrictions could still be in place where you live and you can check out your municipality if you're in norway but when the authority's advice and rules essentially disappear the individual can choose for themselves what risk they want to take and what measures they want to practice said the government in a press release how liberal of them uh the rule changes follow a similar approach to the one taken by denmark one month ago obviously that would be august at this point denmark's government lifted all national restrictions but kept some of its entry rules in
