They Think It's All Over

It isn't.

Captured in August 2020 during the worst airborne pandemic for over 100 years.

In what looks like an April fool's joke, but is sadly complete reality, the government in England have decided in their infinite wisdom to end free testing for Covid, to end all public health protections and to reduce monitoring for new variants to the point where a new variant will have a two week lead advantage over any measures needed to save lives.

The long term burden of Covid is going to be astronomical. We are witnessing a mass disabling event actively encouraged by government policy.

Don't become one of the statistics in this public health disaster. Protect yourselves and your loved ones. Proper protective masks and good ventilation - these are not restrictions, they are protections.

You wouldn't drive down a foggy motorway without your lights and seatbelt on right? Do they restrict you? No, they protect you.

Stay safe my Flickr friends.
