Dear Julie Butler (CTM UHB - Corporate Development),
Whilst I sincerely appreciate your teams' wonderful commitment and efforts in these pandemic times , including your non frontline and non clinical settings work relatively, to help giving data in public interests, we public will be ever so indebted for your efforts . Thank you indeed.
I can confirm respectfully with folded hands that my request is urgent and still expect there will be reasonable delays of minor scale but sincerely hope that you will continue your sincere duty and hard work for upholding public interests equally and as much as possible in a safe manner.
Please could I request you to take utmost safety precautions as per the local policies and your safety is important , as we all are in this together , we will together fight this Corona virus as more optimistic news on vaccine has finally arrived in UK from 2 pharma companies (Pfizer and Moderna) since last 1 week.
Yours sincerely,
