Sandra Gauci, a teacher and ADPD candidate, issued a statement slamming the authorities for the lack of respect shown towards workers following the St Patrick’s Day celebrations.
Infuriated, Gauci highlighted how whilst educators are forced to wear masks and use sanitisers, mass meetings and St Patrick’s Day celebrations went ahead without any adherence to mitigation measures.
She also highlighted the fact that Opposition leader Bernard Grech joined in the celebrations in St Julian’s, taking photos alongside all those convening in the entertainment Mecca.
‘Thank you for the lack of respect to educators, public health front liners and anyone who lost someone due to COVID-19. Now try and buy us through some fictitious raise’ she said.
Gauci emphasised the recent spike in daily cases of the virus, but this is being ignored so that people can revel in mass meetings or parties. She also forecasted an increase in measures and the introduction of a fourth booster dose, after all celebrations were done with.
Comments flooded the post, with several mixed reactions from the public. Some supported Gauci’s message whilst others said that people have a right to celebrate but at the same time asked that kids remove masks in class. Others slammed the vaccine mandates or the cancellation of local feasts.
