In this week’s edition of the Epsom and Ewell talking news we have more from Surrey Heartlands about the role out of the vaccination programme, as well as a warning about vaccination scams. As well as covering the effect of COVID-19 on local services, we have many other news stories, finishing with a collection of interesting stories from local residents about their personal vaccination experiences.
This week’s local news begins with an open letter from Assistant Chief Constable Dave Miller, who, since February 2020, has been leading Operation Apollo, Surrey Police and Sussex Police’s Covid-19 response. In this open letter to residents of Surrey, read by EETN volunteer Rob Taylor, he shares his Covid experience and reflects on the past 12 months.
