Lockdown to be lifted, allowing most restaurants,cafes, libraries,etc to re-open
A lot of people have lost jobs and they’re not getting anything from the government because they had zero hour contract, were self-employed,etc.People’s mental health is dramatically worsens as a lot of people are not able to stay inside for a long time because not everyone’s mental health allows it
While some precautions should be made as the virus is still out there, the virus itself will never disappear and we cannot no longer ignore the fact that many people have lost their jobs, businesses and are currently unemployed and are barely surviving. Moreover, constantly sitting at home is not only horrible for your immune system, as minimal exposure to fresh air weakens your immune system and once you will be allowed to go out again, your body simple won’t be able to handle it.
