Call me old-fashioned, but I'm still wearing a mask.

Gilian is not the only one. Hebden Bridge is a rather dangerous place at the moment.
The question is Why? Could it be the proliferation of cafes and takeouts in the Square? The Trades reopening without adequate spacing? Too many friends meeting up in their houses?
Whatever the cause, there is clearly something special about what is happening and it would be helpful if local authorities could give the matter some attention

Does anyone know the age range of cases in Hebden Bridge?
From my own circle two outbreaks in families recently started with younger teenage members - so hard.
One 60+ year old already vaccinated still succumbed - luckily now OK.

Yep do agree Michael, even if might put off some crowding round our needle :) I've been surprised how many locals as well as tourists seem unaware of risks - could it be we've become too complacent in our little bubble?
Could we even become our C21st Eyam where we seal ourselves off self-sufficient like to avoid contaminating others...?
