With the announcement on 4th January 2021 of a new lockdown for England to curb the spread of the Covid-19 virus, the Cardinal welcomed the decision to keep churches open for common worship. In a statement, he said:
‘The regular practice of our faith in God is a well-established source of both personal resilience and dedicated service of those in need. Such resilience and enduring service are vital in these difficult circumstances.

Bishops’ Conference Statement on COVID-19 Vaccines:
On 3rd December, the Department for Social Justice of the Bishops’ Conference issued the following statement, signed by the Chair, Bishop Richard Moth, on COVID-19 vaccines:
In September 2020 the Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales issued a statement COVID-19 and Vaccination (24th September 2020). In the light of the recent breakthrough in vaccine development we now wish to issue a follow up statement.
The development of a vaccine against COVID-19 presents an important breakthrough in protecting others as well as oneself from the virus; a virus which has not only caused a global pandemic and led to a huge loss of life but has also placed a great burden on healthcare workers and systems.
Each of us has a duty to protect others from infection with its danger of serious illness, and for some, death. A vaccine is the most effective way to achieve this unless one decides to self-isolate.
