Covid-19: 'For us it's not freedom day, is it?'

The end of England's lockdown rules on 19 July has been dubbed 'Freedom Day' - but for some people, it's becoming a day to dread. 'For us it's not freedom day, is it?' says Rosie Duffin, 74, from Fareham, in Hampshire. 'It's 'becoming a hermit day' once again. It might be freedom for others, definitely not for us.' The retired NHS worker has secondary breast cancer and is considered clinically extremely vulnerable. Although she's been vaccinated, she says she was horrified when she heard that face masks may no longer be required. 'It doesn't make sense really, does it?' she says. 'I don't see the problem with wearing face masks. When it comes to my own protection, and the protection of others, surely it's a small thing to do.'
