Poverty and ignorance.

let’s address the big massive elephant in the room which MSM won’t do for fear of being accused of racism, what’s causing it is the mixing of households by the Muslim community during this period of their celebration its simply a case of not adhering to the rules

'No one knows for sure how this spike in infections started.' yes they do. Doctors at the Royal Bolton Hospital 'The latest increase in Bolton positive tests has been driven by cases of the Indian variant, brought in by people travelling back and forth from India and Pakistan'

Schools re-opening unfortunately. Even though we need the schools open it is pretty obvious this will cause an increase in cases. Children will spread to eachother then take the virus home.
