Young people and vaccine response

Sir, – It is indeed heartening to see such a positive response in recent days from so many of our younger generation to take up the offer of the Covid vaccination. It contrasts with the reluctance in so many other countries, due to false and inaccurate information being promoted on the science and efficacy of vaccines. It is surely in part at least a vindication of our excellent education system, where students are encouraged to think logically and independently, and thereby evaluate the knowledge and advice of our expert science and medical professionals. – Yours, etc,
