I have read all the comments here so far and I thank you all for your help. I was called yesterday and they didn't leave a message or their name. As our phone has a call blocker they didn't get through. I have blocked the number.
Claimed from Department of Health. Asked if I had been vaccinated and did I have my relevant vaccination cards, when i asked sorry who are you? They heavily sighed and tutted! And i said you are being very rude! He then responded “I’m being rude because you can’t understand clear English” he then proceeded to be verbally abusive calling me all the names under the sun! Very evil twisted man.
