In an interview released last night, the prime minister controversially doubled down on the comment, saying: “As far I’m aware, it’s fairly accurate.”
The health secretary said there have not been reported deaths from the new variant.
Burley pointed out that the prime minister promised no one would have to sell their homes for social care at the last election.
"I’m only doing what you normally do, but carry on," the health secretary said when the news presenter tried to ask a question.
"If they haven’t got vaccinated by now, then there is an issue with patient safety," the health secretary said.
"I let myself and my viewers down," the presenter said.
"A quick thought before I ask you one more question, because it does look like Mr Opik really does want to talk to you..."
The presenter was taken off air after attending a gathering for her 60th birthday when London was under Tier 2 restrictions.
The presenter did not hold back during an appearance on The Last Leg.
