Across western Europe and the US, lockdowns in smaller regions have been enforced in response to local COVID-19 outbreaks.
Unfortunately, the locations of these local flare-ups share characteristics that are prevalent amongst BAME communities in the UK. Overcrowded housing, poor living conditions, poor working environments and low socio-economic levels all point towards an increased risk of infection and transmission. This makes it particularly pertinent for charities operating in these ‘high risk’ areas to be prepared for a local lockdown. This guide from Muslim Charities Forum will provide some advice on how this could be done.
