People walk in front of an effigy holding a hypodermic needle, a Covid-19 virus cell and a tombstone as they take part in the parade at the annual Lewes Bonfire Night Celebrations on November 5, 2021 in Lewes, England. The event commemorates the memory of the seventeen Protestant martyrs as Bonfire Societies parade through the narrow streets. The evening comes to an end with the burning of effigies, or “guys” usually representing Guy Fawkes, who died in 1605 after an unsuccessful attempt to blow up The Houses of Parliament, and other topical figures. The annual parade was cancelled last year due to the Covid-19 pandemic. (Photo by Dan Kitwood/Getty Images)
