   But then there was this bit of the speech: > But even as we strive for a vaccine, we must never cut corners, slim down the trials or sacrifice safety to speed. Because it would be an absolute tragedy if in our eagerness, we were to boost the nutjobs - the anti vaxxers,dangerous obsessives who campaign against the whole concept of vaccination and who would risk further millionsof lives.
