Please watch & share Seren's testimony, given recently to the UK Covid inquiry. She was forced to leave school half way through her A-levels, having become the target of sustained bullying, abuse & intimidation - not just from other students, but from staff & parents too.
Why? She dared to continue masking to protect her disabled little sister when everyone around her wanted to pretend the pandemic was over. Afterall, we were given official permission not to care about the clinically vulnerable. By continuing to care, Seren defied official government guidance to forcibly infect everyone, including the disabled, elderly and clinically vulnerable. For the crime of following the science, refusing to consent to mass infection & salting the vibes, Seren was ruthlessly, cruelly targeted & punished. Welcome to our post caring era.
Extracts from Seren's testimony๐
"I was the only child masked and became the target for bullying"
"I was coughed at, sworn at, verbally abused and physically intimidated". Not just by other students, but by staff & other parents too
"School became terrifying"
Seren's burden, and that of many like her, is never acknowledged, such as: "The toll of carrying the burden of being the risk to your vulnerable family member, of having to advocate for clean air, having to defend myself for continuing to wear a mask or endure abuse for reminding people of a pandemic they'd rather forget".
"My sister's 13 now & still extremely vulnerable. Outside of my family, who is protecting her now"?
Seren's courage, moral clarity and defiance in the face of such abject adult failure, is inspirational & humbling. As I told her myself, you're the very best of us, Seren ๐ช๐๐
