LIKE many others I fail to see the logic of suspending the vaccination programme at the BIC for a cheerleading competition.

Graham Baines is trying desperately to justify the three day event, but the number of positive cases in BCP area is rising daily, putting more pressure on the NHS.

Children are resilient and aware of what is going on in the outside world.

Therefore this event should be suspended until further notice.

I am saddened by the decision to let the event go ahead, the people of Bournemouth and the BCP area should have vaccination support all day every day with the pandemic still with us.
