COVID is an Arts Leadership issue

FMfansmaskup.bsky.social

**MORE PRESS** British Theatre Guide covered “Protect the Heart of the Arts,” sounding the alarm on the Long Covid crisis in the performing arts. Editor Philip Fisher mentions critics & performers ill for weeks with Covid. www.britishtheatreguide.info/features/ala... cc @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com

The stars have aligned in recent weeks. An amazing number of this critic’s circle of acquaintances have succumbed to COVID-19 in recent weeks. Rather than a few sniffles for a day or two, the majority have been laid low for between one and two weeks and even five or six weeks afterwards are still suffering from serious symptoms, especially fatigue. One even spent a week in hospital. Secondly, a press release was issued from the grassroots advocacy campaign “Protect the Heart of the Arts” announcing that it was sounding the alarm on the Long COVID crisis for performing artists, of which more later. Thirdly, a critic-friend has been very unlucky of late, since a number of performances that she was planning to review were cancelled at very short notice due to illness, which she assumes was down to COVID.

According to a headline at the moment “Covid Infects 1 in 24 People in England and Scotland as JN.1 Variant Spreads” and though you may be far quite far from England and Scotland such headlines are a warning that cheer is not the only thing being spread during this holiday.
