There is no normal Christmas
Hancock calls out the announcement from Astra Zeneca and Oxford University that AZD1222 vaccine candidate in one dosing method achieves 90% efficiency against COVID-19 for fantastic news.

Boris Johnson also welcomes the announcement of the vaccine, but cautions that we are still in testing times.
