Because since lockdown ended more people are out and about in places where the virus can more easily be transmitted?

Yeah - so wear em in those places that they’ve already stated. we’ve had shops open for weeks with no increase in cases. what other places are of concern?

Dardandec Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 I don't get why people who can wear face coverings have a problem with it. I have been wearing one for months in shops and other inside places, I do feel it is doing the right thing to help protect myself and people around me. I even wear one outside in busy areas where social distancing might be a little bit of a problem for some people . I don't feel properly dressed without it. I will continue to wear it till the risk of catching Covid becomes zero. I would urge others to do the same for the same reasons. In this day and age you cannot afford to be stubborn, selfish and complacent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t be bothered to argue with people like you. If you want to ignore the scientific advice, then crack on. Just don’t be surprised when it costs you a few grand in fines. How about just taking a breath and thinking about ways that YOU can contribute to ending this emergency. Distancing, wearing a face covering, staying in a bit more, all drive the problem down. Maybe not massively, but it all helps. Whilst fools like you continue to be contrarian, the rest of us have our liberty curtailed. I’m fed up of people like you affecting my life. Seriously, have a good long think. And a look in the mirror. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, have a good long think. And a look in the mirror. What rubbish. what scientific advice am i ignoring? I practice social distancing constantly. i haven’t been told I have to stay in my house any more so I go out when i want to go out. i went to the hallamshire to get my father in laws blood thinners last week and wore a mask whilst I was in the hospital because they are the rules. so now there’s some speculation as to whether mandatory face masks are required and I don’t agree you call me a fool? grow up.
