THIS Morning came under fire today for giving air time to a care home worker who refused to get the Covid jab - and even applauding her.

Louise Akester, who worked in the care sector for 14 years, lost her job last year after the government called for all care home workers to be vaccinated, to protect elderly residents.

At the time she broke down in tears as she said goodbye to her job. But today she appeared on the This Morning sofa to chat to Vernon Kay, who is stepping in while Phillip Schofield is off with Covid, and Rochelle Humes, following the government U-turn on the news.

Those watching at home were gobsmacked as she explained why she didn’t want the vaccine. Countless studies have shown the jabs, which are safe and effective, reduce your risk of getting seriously ill or dying from Covid, they reduce the likelihood of catching and spreading the illness and protect against new variants.
