LEGISLATE TO VENTILATE
✍️Long Covid Support have written an open letter to @SteveBarclay to ensure that effective Ventilation is available in all public spaces
📢We are calling for an URGENT #VentilationBill for all 🇬🇧 public spaces #CleanAirNow#DavosSafe

🔹The @BBCPanorama doc tonight shows that 5-10K are off sick
🔹They need #COVIDSafeAir to stop reinfection and for prevention
🔹We need to protect our citizens @LaylaMoran
