UK judge rules man with learning difficulties should be vaccinated A man with severe learning difficulties should have a Covid-19 vaccine, despite his family’s objections, a judge ruled. Specialists said the man, who is in his 30s, was “clinically vulnerable” and in a “priority group” for vaccination. But the man’s parents objected and raised a number of concerns about alleged side-effects. Judge Jonathan Butler agreed with NHS Tameside & Glossop Clinical Commissioning Group that vaccination was in his best interests.
