UK Freedom Day sees COVID cases rise

UK COVID-19 response labeled as a "failure"

Thousands of revelers have piled onto dance floors in England for the first time since March 2020

On what locals have dubbed “Freedom Day”, Prime Minister Boris Johnson has urged the public to remain cautious after more than 48,000 new cases were confirmed.

Johnson’s decision to lift regulations marks a different decision in the global response to the coronavirus. The PM is eager to see Europe’s largest economies firing again because so many people are now vaccinated marks a new chapter in the global response to the coronavirus.

The vast majority of infections are currently among younger age groups who are not yet vaccinated or are only partially protected.

The United Kindom has the seventh-highest death toll in the world, 128,708, and is forecast to soon have more new infections each day than it did at the height of a second wave of the virus earlier this year.

From midnight, laws in England requiring masks to be worn in shops and other indoor settings lapsed, along with capacity limits in bars and restaurants, and rules limiting the number of people who can socialise together.

Johnson sets COVID-19 restrictions for England with devolved administrations in Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland making their own policy.

As businesses across England faced a shortage of workers due to the NHS app pinging people and telling them to isolate, supermarkets warned they faced strain.

Scientists have criticised plans to ease almost all Covid-19 restrictions.

In a heartfelt plea, Russian women have taken to the streets demanding the safe return of their loved ones from the Ukrainian front.

The conflict in Ukraine has stretched on for years, and the toll on families has been immense. Mothers, wives, sisters, and daughters are uniting to call for an end to the fighting and the return of their men.

The women, often referred to as the “mothers of the front,” are growing increasingly frustrated with the ongoing conflict. They argue that their husbands, sons, and brothers have been away for far too long, and the human cost of the war is simply too high.

With no clear resolution in sight, their calls for peace and reconciliation are becoming more urgent.

This grassroots movement has sparked a national conversation in Russia, with many questioning the government’s handling of the conflict.

While the official stance has been to support the separatist forces in Ukraine, these women are highlighting the personal tragedies and broken families left in the wake of the war. Their determination to bring their loved ones home is palpable.

The situation raises important questions about the impact of long-term conflicts on families, the role of women in peace movements, the government’s response to public sentiment, and the prospects for a peaceful resolution in the ongoing Ukraine conflict.
