As it stands, we're at undoubtedly the worst part of the Covid-19 outbreak since the first case was confirmed almost a year ago. Hospitals are being stretched to their limits, case numbers have been steadily increasing and over one thousand people have been admitted to hospital since the 2nd of January.

We're currently in level 5 restrictions, schools are closed, non-essential retail and construction has closed and nearly 400,000 people remain out of work.
