COVID CONFUSION

Are other bears confused, like Ted,
With Covid rules a-changing?
One's area or postcode shapes
Restrictions, tough, wide-ranging.

Tier 3?  Tier 5?  Tier 1 is best.
Or is it?  Goodness knows.
Ted's cross-eyed, checking "clusters",
And what their number shows.

Less than impressed by Test and Trace,
With patchy information,
He's tilting to bear fall-back mode:
The start of hibernation.
