This is Shelagh Fogarty's powerful message to Londoners still going out - stop putting everyone in danger.
Speaking on her LBC show, she said: "The pressure is growing for cafes, bars and restaurants to close. Londoners are facing the first wave of Covid-19 and already have the largest number of cases.
"So many of you are still going out to crowded places, not being hand-aware, not being face-aware, not knowing about the surfaces that you're leaning on.
"It is beyond belief. What else do we have to say to stop this?
"I know Boris Johnson values freedom, but freedom comes with responsibility. You have to take responsibility for being a citizen in a country that's in a crisis.
"If you are well currently, that means really limiting your movements, it means not being in crowds.
"If you haven't got that yet, I'm not sure what else I can say to help you get it. Stop going to pubs. Stop going to cafes. Stop going to bars. Stop mixing in large groups.
"You are putting other people in danger."
