Reduction in COVID restrictions seems to be bringing some relief

In Great Britain, around 45% of people surveyd by the ONS said that COVID-19 was still constraining their freedom and independence at the end of July. However, the trend took a downward turn after so called “freedom day” on the 19th of July, when many restrictions were lifted in England. This was the case especially for younger people (aged 16–29) and older working-age people (aged 50–69). #dataisbeautiful #charticle
