Yes I feel jaded too @AzulOscuro just this last week I heard of a tower block where there was covid infection on every floor. My friend who is a social care worker had to visit someone there.

I wish I could be more optimistic. Early in the pandemic I saw a window painted which said 'Instead of going back to normal why not go back to better?' It was such a nice thought but I do not see it happening.

Lower socio economic groups are more likely to catch (high density over crowded housing, key worker jobs out of the home) and get sicker from covid (poorer health outcomes). I don't see anything changing in the UK sadly, except unemployment is higher now.

@TunedOut I hope that this new era in your politics does harness a desire to make real permanent change for your people for the better. Inequality is bad for everyone IMO, it drags a whole country down.
