Postcards depict how those most vulnerable to Covid are being forgotten in re-opening

Sick Cards Artist Aine O Hara, who has fibromyalgia, a disorder linked to musculoskeletal pain, fatigue and memory issues, said it can be easy to forget people who stay home.

People with disabilities and others still at risk from Covid-19 are being forgotten in the rush to re-open society, an artist collecting ‘sick cards’ from affected people for an exhibition has said.

Reading the postcards has been “tough”, artist Aine O’Hara said as they reveal the extent to which many people are still restricting their activities.
