Coronavirus: Blackburn Mosque faces ‘public health investigation’ over 250 at funeral
250 people turned up to a mosque in Blackburn for a funeral despite social distancing rules - does it surprise you?
First, Qasa Alom gets a round-up of the latest coronavirus news from our reporter Dil Neiyyar. After that we’ll hear from Kate Bingham, Chair of the UK Vaccine Taskforce, after the government announced it has signed a deal to get access to 90 million doses of coronavirus vaccines being developed overseas. Then Qasa wants to know, 250 people turned up to a mosque in Blackburn for a funeral despite social distancing rules - does it surprise you? The Jamia Ghosia mosque on Chester Street in Blackburn is being investigated by public health officials after 250 people attended a funeral service – breaking social distancing rules. The Imam from the mosque has since tested positive for Covid-19, which means those who were at the funeral should now self-isolate for 14 days. Plus, we’ll be discussing how the pandemic might affect the futures of young people in this country. With the economy hit hard and high levels of unemployment looming, Qasa hears from several people about their thoughts on their future prospects. And this week’s guru, immigration expert Harjap Bhangal, is on the show to answer all your questions.
