A timely reminder that even young, healthy people can be affected by severe long covid after having the virus.
This poor woman has suffered over a year of health problems, including blood clots on the lungs and heart inflammation. She's been largely housebound since March 2020!

Lifting all remaining covid rules when cases are rising rapidly in young people who aren't fully vaccinated yet (and, in the case of children, don't even have the option of being vaccinated yet) means many thousands more will suffer months of serious long term health problems.
The idea that it will all just magically be fine because it's summer and cases were very low last summer is clearly nonsense.
Covid is not seasonal. We've had major waves starting in March, September, December and June.
Cases in July are now as high as they were in December!

It's been cleared for over 12s in the UK, and other countries are doing it. Why are WE relying on infecting children to build immunity? 🤔
