The US has so far recorded the most deaths from the virus.
Oh, and the internet loves them.
It was all down to a mix-up.
IT’S THE FIRST of December, which means the beginning of Christmas month.
But today’s date is also a bit more significant than in other years, because it marks the end of Level 5 restrictions that have been in place across the country for the last six weeks.
From today, retailers, hairdressers, gyms, cinemas, museums and libraries can re-open to the public.
Some shops are even making up for lost time by opening through the night tonight, and there have been reports of overnight queues outside a few retailers ahead of their re-opening today.
For the day that’s in it, we’re wondering: Do you plan on going to a non-essential shop today?
