But I think it's also a good opportunity to remind people of their responsibility as individuals as they too visit supermarkets and make sure that they are wearing face coverings and adhering to the 2m.

It's not just Caerphilly it's right across Wales. They assure me that they have social distancing measures in place and, of course, there is a geographical spread here.
