Use the live music industry to deliver the Covid vaccine

7th January 2021 (iNews). Roadies have skills to deliver jab and turn venues into mass vaccination centres, says music promoter John Giddings. The skills of the dormant live music industry should be used to step up the Covid vaccination programme, the promoter of the Isle of Wight festival and stadium tours by the Rolling Stones has suggested. In a message to Boris Johnson, John Giddings said: “We are the music business – we have thousands of skilled people capable of running events & empty theatres/clubs/arenas. Give us the vaccines and we will work 24 hours a day to sort it.”
