Premier League teams up with the Government as Jonathan Van-Tam urges football fans to get their Covid vaccinations and not to go to games if they have symptoms

The Premier League have teamed up with the Government to urge football supporters to receive their Covid-19 vaccinations - and to stay away from games if they display any symptoms.

In a video released today, Deputy Chief Medical Officer Jonathan Van-Tam has offered fans advice on how to stay safe and prevent spreading the virus, while also insisting that there is still a 'role to play'.

The message from Professor Van-Tam is the latest step taken by the authorities to ensure that spectators and players are protected from coronavirus, in light of the restrictions across the UK being relaxed.
