Lockdown

We’re not a team!

The people in the U.K. have been remarkable. The vast majority of us have followed the rules, have respected the Lockdown, have socially distanced and continue to do so, wear our masks, have stepped up and taken the vaccine, plus many more sacrifices, including not receiving any financial support from the government whilst large corporates are receiving millions.

Other countries around the world are struggling, struggling with infections, not being able to roll out the vaccine that fast, being too optimistic early on and on top of all that have been struck by Covid variants, e.g. South African, Brazilian, Indian variants etc.

And now the promised unlocking process in the U.K. is under threat because the U.K. government have never been tough enough on incoming infections.

Namaste

On Monday 17th May, 2021, the U.K. will start to open up from Lockdown and officially we will be able to start hugging again. It’s hard to believe that we are experiencing a time when our Government has to give us permission to hug each other. I’m sure that parents haven’t stopped hugging their little ones and partners haven’t stopped hugging each other, well at least those that live together. I appreciate that older people in our society are desperate to feel a hug from their younger family members and of course why not?
