Carol’s post comes after son Mark shared that some of his closest family and friends were battling coronavirus, but didn’t say who.
He tweeted: “The Government have of course explained how fast this new variant is spreading, but I think it is hard to understand quite how fast.”
“I cannot stress how many people I know, from immediate family to best friends and distant friends who currently have covid. It’s rife. Stay safe.”
