Club Covid.
I don’t imagine I was the only one who was slightly sceptical when it was revealed that we would go from practically no social contact to nightclubs within just a few months. Maybe I’m an old cynic, but it was just hard to see how “get the hell away from me unless you’re wearing 17 masks” could become “I’ll have 3 jaegerbombs please mate” in such a short period of time. But lo and behold, that transition appears to be underway. And the scenes in Liverpool this week prove it. As part of a 2-day experiment, 3000 people attended ‘First Dance’ over the weekend in a maskless, non-distanced soiree that had just the faintest whiff of normality about it. It had it all: teenagers falling over from too much Echo Falls, young men looking shiftily at BBC cameras before conspicuously shuffling away, deafening music, and a few thousand sore heads the next day. Wow, is this really what we’ve been waiting to get back to? But it’s alright though, because it’s all in the name of science.
