PM Signals Early End to Self-Isolation Law; Health Sec. Pledges 15,000 New Health Workers | NTD

Prime Minister Boris Johnson says laws requiring people in England with COVID-19 to self-isolate could be lifted within weeks. Questions grow over the government's use of behavioural science during the pandemic. Experts share their concerns about the ethics of the Nudge Unit. The health secretary reveals plans to reduce the 6 million people on the NHS waiting list, pledging to recruit 15,000 health workers by the end of next month. The committee that holds government to account for the effectiveness of public spending says the only impact of Brexit so far is "increased costs, paperwork, and border delays.”
