You don't need to wear a mask if

You're exempt

You're police

You're nurse

You're staff

And you don't even need to wear a 'suitable' face covering as most says its not for medical use.

Its just symbolic to silence you.

Didnt need masks back in March... wearing one now is like wearing a condom at a baby shower.

There's still no scientific evidence that viruses cause diseases and are infectious. None.

Centuries or researxh funded by the oil men so they can sell you oil dericed medicine and aborted fetal tissue in their vaccines. And when they make these vaccines they are immune to being sued. And doctors need not to know the ingredients and also cannot be suee.

Yet a chef needs to know every ingredient and can be sued.

Yeah... all that research.

You can't catch it in the pub, restaurant, gym, classroom or hotel lobby... But you can catch it at the supermarket, bus, train and hairdresser.... Sometimes 1 metre away from someone and sometimes 2 metres away. Is that correct? Just asking for a friend who spent the last 6.5 months on mars

Shrug. All policies are a balance of competing considerations. This is the balance the government has struck.

No. I said it was what the government had done. I didn't say I agreed with it in this instance.

The government made a choice. (Any inference on my feelings about that choice, you've inferred)

I think the point is that most of the first group you mentioned are optional places to go (yes, yes, not classrooms), and the second group are mostly places you may need/have to go.

Therefore, try to ensure places people have to go are safe. People can make their own determination on the others.

So the rules of infection differ from place to place and can alter severity depending on social distance?.... How many were supposed to die in the UK according to the scientific boffins? Half a million was it? It's going to be way more than that....

I mean, I'm a microbiologist, with enough knowledge on virology from my MA degree to hold a well informed conversation.

So how about you do what good researchers do, how about you demonstrate how viruses are not infectious? Come on, disprove the accepted hypothesis.

Yes I noticed in supermarkets more are wearing masks, but in corner shops/news agents not many are doing it.. Even though they have a notice on the front of doors stating it.

Decided to venture to the shops today, first stop Chester everyone wearing masks in the shops, then went on to Broughton 7 miles down the road where there was probably only 5% of people at most with masks on, have to say Chester there was an abundance of car parking spaces and Broughton people were fighting for one, method to the madness of the Welsh to keep those tills pinging?

I very much doubt that the government or scientific community are going to change the way that they've done things because of unevidenced proclamations on a swinging site.

You're exempt

You're police

And you don't even need to wear a 'suitable' face covering as most says its not for medical use.

Its just symbolic to silence you.

Didnt need masks back in March... wearing one now is like wearing a condom at a baby shower.

Congratulations you've helped stop all your friends getting pregnant, that's precisely the point

Almost making sense until that last bit....I assume from that you have never had any immunisations and have never had any illness whatsoever?

I wear my mask. It may not prevent every single particle from leaving my mouth but it’s got to help. If I happened to be asymptomatic then I’d like to think I’m not passing anything on. I’m signing up to trials for the vaccine too.

I did notice that in my local Tesco probably around a quarter of the people in there didn’t wear a mask. Kinda pissed me off to be honest.

I hate wearing one and I have a good old mutter under my breath when I put it on but I’ll do it until this crap is sorted. If we all did, it won’t stop this but if it helps even a small amount then I’m in.

So then you if your a virologist and well verse you can explain to everyone how non medical grade face covering offer no protection AT ALL from catching disease, the gov guidance is wear a scarf, sock anything you like.

Then please proceed to explain the findings by WHO that it is extremely rare for an A symptomatic person to spread covid

Then explain the German scientists that could not find any trace of covid on surfaces inside confirmed infected household

Oh i forget, wear mask not to kill elderly, please then explain the decision of Gov to put infected patients in care homes

1. The masks aren't to protect YOU from catching it.

2. The WHO, along with everyone else in the world is discovering things as time goes on, you know, what happens when people research a novel virus.

3. The virus only lives for a certain amount of hours, the surfaces could have been cleaned, there are many variables that could change the result of such an experiment.

4. The government didn't notice put any infected patients into care homes, the doctors did. The guidance stated that discharged patients COULD be tested but it wasn't a requirement, that's on the doctors.

All this bullshit about Bill Gates is getting silly. He can say whatever he likes, it doesn't mean it will happen.

At the risk of stating the bleedingly obvious to some here, the government are not scientists and the scientists are not the government. The government may or may not use science, or other factors, in choices it makes. The government sets a minimum standard of behaviour through its laws for whatever reasons it chooses.

Also, believing in germ theory/ mask wearing/ Covid reduction doesn't mean blindly following the government.

This ends your probably futile public service announcement.

No it wouldn't. That would be ridiculous. It would reduce your field of vision and impede checking your blind spot.

I've started to see it as good manners. No I probably don't have anything I'm spreading, seeing as I've recovered, but I'm covering my germ holes because I don't want people around me getting sick. And hopefully if I do pick up a respiratory virus of any sort, I'll keep it to myself rather than sharing.

Are you suggesting there should be no exemptions? That is right, in those cases there should be a designated area where they should wait like a room, so a friend or a staff would have to do the shopping for them.

Say they have no one to do the shipping for them,?

What if they need to use public transport?"

The staff at the shop would have do the shopping for them.

I would love it if this were the case, but I can't see it being possible or practical. Or doable in a way that wouldn't demean people with genuine conditions.

It's an extremely difficult balancing act."

Yes it would be a difficult balancing act too at first, but an necessary ones as well, we are all in this together.

One part of any solution is to have empathy and understanding that some people who are not wearing a mask may have complex issues, may have been shielding for months and are already stressed about venturing out..

Click and collect and home delivery are both viable options. I think it would be perfectly reasonable if people with *real* medical exemption were given priority for these services.

The arseholes that falsely claim exemption because they just don't fancy wearing a mask are like those guys who offer up a million flimsy reasons why they don't want to wear a condom.

So let me try to understand this .

It's ok for my wife to go to work because she wears a visor there as she can wear a mask.

Buf if not ok for her to go shopping.

She is a keyworker by the way .

The only time she stayed off work through all this is when she had the virus.

What I am saying is that:

1. There are people with genuine medical conditions that preclude them from being able to use a facemask.

2. There are selfish arseholes pretending to have medical conditions because they just don't want to follow the rules. They're making things worse for the genuine people.

The people in the second group can get fucked. Especially the ones buying and selling fake sunflower lanyards on ebay. Absolute bottom-feeding scum.

If I was living through the worst public health crisis in a century and I had a condition that made me vulnerable, I would not be espicially keen to rub shoulders with the Great British Public without protection.

If home delivery or click & collect were made available to me as a priority, I'd be all over it. It would make no sense to me to willingly walk into a potentially hazardous environment unprotected when there were other, safer options available.

This is why I pick up my parents' shopping for them rather than let my dad, who has a form of leukaemia wander around the shops where the unwashed masses can cough on him. Or rather I did, until the home delivery option stopped getting hammered by the panic buyers. Now they're quite happy to order online and let it come to them.

Also a keyworker here and also worked right through. The massive difference which your wife will attest to is the numbers of people in the shops at the start of lockdown vs now. When first I was going to the shops there were maybe 1 or 2 people in any given shop at any given time, as things relaxed and shops got screens etc numbers increased to 5-6 people. Long term it is not sustainable to limit numbers so drastically so the shop must let more people in but rely on the good will (laws are policed by public consent) of their patrons to engage in some safety measures themselves to protect each other.

Much thanks to your wife for the work she did.

You will always get the odd person who advises against the general consensus. As for the delay, we don't wear masks to avoid flu in the winter. When covid first appeared this approach was taken. Anyone who has had flu will tell you that you can't get out of bed and therefore you aren't going to be in shops. Many people with covid are asymptomatic so will be carrying on life as normal but spreading a virus with a higher R rate than flu. We know this now which is why the advice changed.

I'm in Scotland. 99% are wearing masks in the area I live in even though they were introduced a few weeks before England. Perhaps something to do with the respect for the way the Nicola Sturgeon is handling covid compared to Boris Johnson? For the record, I voted to No and have never voted SNP.

Nicola has done a good job compared to BJ. In Cornwall it seems to me to me that apart from the odd belligerent person the only identifiable group of society who are ignoring the rules are teenagers/under 30s..

Shrug. All policies are a balance of competing considerations. This is the balance the government has struck.

On Mars they have a social crediting system and government compliance earns martian citizens lots of points on their credit score.... Did I say mars? I meant China "

They don’t have to get it right 100% of the time. Nobody can do that. That have to advise what they feel is right at the time. Whether you agree or not is immaterial. It should be compulsory to wear one or no entry/access or places or transport without a mask or visor. Compulsory. Better to do something than nothing and if people wash their hands, keep their distance and wear a mask of visor then ALL viruses and bacteria will be reduced. I don’t get what the issue is.

People are behaving like tantruming children - they can’t do what they want in the way they want and don’t like being told what to do. It’s pretty daft but unfortunately has consequences for others. Just wear the mask.

Its just symbolic to silence you.

Didnt need masks back in March... wearing one now is like wearing a condom at a baby shower.

Congratulations you've helped stop all your friends getting pregnant, that's precisely the point

If it was we'd have all fallen off by now, that gravity thing is just a theory never been proved apparently, like this virus malarkey

Ah. Germ theory denial. Congratulations.

I actually don't know where to start with this pile of garbage. Literally centuries of research is all wrong cause someone found some article a bloke on the internet wrote. We need a face palm emoji!!

He's simply an ignorant man seeking attention not knowledge. BTW before he cries out I'm flinging insults, being ignorant means lacking knowledge.

Lacking knowledge. Have you read any of the sciencepapers that claims to demonstrate viruses causes diseases or that viruses are infectious?

Reposnd however you like. But until you actually read one and see the ereoneous nature of them... youre talking from hearsay.

I mean, I'm a microbiologist, with enough knowledge on virology from my MA degree to hold a well informed conversation.

So how about you do what good researchers do, how about you demonstrate how viruses are not infectious? Come on, disprove the accepted hypothesis.

So then you if your a virologist and well verse you can explain to everyone how non medical grade face covering offer no protection AT ALL from catching disease, the gov guidance is wear a scarf, sock anything you like.

Then please proceed to explain the findings by WHO that it is extremely rare for an A symptomatic person to spread covid

Then explain the German scientists that could not find any trace of covid on surfaces inside confirmed infected household

Oh i forget, wear mask not to kill elderly, please then explain the decision of Gov to put infected patients in care homes

I look forward to your educated professional reply, as gov taking advice from un qualified computer man, now heavily invested in vaccine, who stands to make millions

"

A.) Microbiologist, not virologist. I just have prior knowledge of the subject from my MA. Please read and quote accordingly.

B.) Your attacks seem to be focused on government policy, not the scientific literature. If you scratched the surface you'd find that a lot of the scientists who have been consulted or doing research for COVID modelling and the response are not happy. Government policies to favour the economy and the not suffer public opinion hits has overridden the scientific advise.

C.) The advise to wear something is nudge theory. Basically get people to wear something, get used to the routine of wearing something if a vaccine takes longer. Anyone with two braincells should know a suitable clinical mask would be better. The reason why this was not issued from the get go is that national and international demand for PPE outstripped supply. It had to be prioritised for medical workers.

D.) WHO findings. Firstly cute the study. Secondly, if it's what I think you are referring to, no, you have read what you want to hear from the study. The study I presume you are referring to states asymptomatic transmission is statistically lower in non-confined locations. Not that it is rare.

E.) German scientists - please provide a reference.

F.) Again, this is government policy because our government can't test quick enough. The scientific literature says do not do this. But our government has completely mishandled this situation and the scientific community has raised this.

Why are shop staff not wearing masks. If one of them have it and cough or sneeze anyone can get it our eyes are open to germs too. Also majority of people don’t wash all packets and tins so still confuses me why staff don’t heed them.

Because that's the decision the government made, for better or worse

"It seems like every other person chooses not to wear one in this country. There is no reason not to wear either a face mask or visor.

Can I have clarification on something?

You can't catch it in the pub, restaurant, gym, classroom or hotel lobby... But you can catch it at the supermarket, bus, train and hairdresser.... Sometimes 1 metre away from someone and sometimes 2 metres away. Is that correct? Just asking for a friend who spent the last 6.5 months on mars

Shrug. All policies are a balance of competing considerations. This is the balance the government has struck.

And they get it right 100% of the time eh? My friend wants to know if you support the government so readily all the time?

On Mars they have a social crediting system and government compliance earns martian citizens lots of points on their credit score.... Did I say mars? I meant China

They don’t have to get it right 100% of the time. Nobody can do that. That have to advise what they feel is right at the time. Whether you agree or not is immaterial. It should be compulsory to wear one or no entry/access or places or transport without a mask or visor. Compulsory. Better to do something than nothing and if people wash their hands, keep their distance and wear a mask of visor then ALL viruses and bacteria will be reduced. I don’t get what the issue is.

People are behaving like tantruming children - they can’t do what they want in the way they want and don’t like being told what to do. It’s pretty daft but unfortunately has consequences for others. Just wear the mask.

I don't want to eat my vegetables, Mummy. I don't love you, you're a communist!

Eat your vegetables. Wear the mask."

Vegetables are good for you so why not. Behave like a child and you will be treated as such.

Because they make me gag when I try to eat them.

I can eat uncooked veg but cant even stand the smell of cooked veg .
