Where I lived a lot of the service industry was closed most of 2020 / it was open but no one went in, but it was the first year where I saw widespread hygiene issues at supermarkets, commonly finding out of date or spoiled food.

Everyone thinks their family will never battle like that, or if they do think that they mis-evaluate who the risky party is or how bad it will get. Get a solicitor/lawyer ASAP and more importantly, be wary of ANYONE who tells you you d
