British Health Minister Matt Hancock submitted his resignation Saturday after revealing that he had violated the measures imposed by his government to limit the spread of the Corona virus.

The man who was the main responsible in Britain for responding to the Covid pandemic, especially the vaccination campaign, sent a letter to Prime Minister Boris Johnson containing his resignation, repeating an earlier apology.

“We owe it to the people who have made so many sacrifices in this pandemic to be honest when we let them down, as I did in my violation of procedures,” Hancock said in his letter. (AFP)
