Dear MEL Topic Readers,

McDonald’s has run out of milkshakes in the UK

Brexit and Covid combined gave a significant blow to the UK’s economy, especially in the supply chain. Foreign laborers aren’t as easily available as they used to be because of Brexit. There aren’t enough truck drivers or warehouse workers to get the things moving and distributed. Farmworkers and restaurant staff are also short to provide and serve food. Then, the coronavirus pandemic hit the UK badly. As so many workers are quarantined or self-isolated, employers are screaming for help. Dairy and chicken products are especially in short supply, forcing MacDonald’s to remove its signature milkshake from the menu and chicken restaurant chains to close doors. You may find it quite inconvenient, if you aren’t a vegan, if either chicken or milk is off the menu or store shelves. So, what if neither becomes unavailable? The first and most practical solution might be a facemask mandate.

Enjoy reading the article and learn about the double impact the UK is facing.
