"It's a load of bollocks we should of been all wearing then from day one of lock down. So now we have to wear one to go shopping but not to go to the pub or restaurant. So how do you eat or drink with a mask on? " Dunno, same as you would on a long journey on public transport I suppose. | |||

"It's a load of bollocks we should of been all wearing then from day one of lock down. So now we have to wear one to go shopping but not to go to the pub or restaurant. " We can see your point, slightly contradictory at face value. One theory is that shopping is firstly more essential whilst hospitality is more optional, you don't like it - don't go to the pub. Secondly, moreso it's thought shopping has a more dynamic movement of people you don't know (outside of social circle) mixing reasonably freely. Hospitality is open on the basis of static seating and being with those you are socially connected to. Apart from going for a piddle there shouldn't be any real movement such as loitering around in the pub, hanging at the bar, popping over to another table. So sitting at your table, in your bubble leans itself to a more relaxed mask approach for now. Obviously that's a "shouldn't" be much movement, in reality probably not so clear. Hospitality staff have the option to be masked in most cases. We're far from a perfect solution, we're all (globally) learning as we go. | |||

"If im wearing a mask, and i see someone shopping without one. Why should i care? You need to read more then you'll care. Why not educate me? If im wearing a mask, surely I'm protected?" Nope, in a general public environment the mask stance has always pretty much been that you wear it to protect others. So you transmit less droplets etc and those showing no symptoms but carrying C19 spread it less. I wear a mask to help you, you wear one to help me. There have been some case studies suggesting this practice can really help slow transmission. So aside from those exempt on medical grounds, it could be viewed as a visual demonstration of those that care for their fellow citizens or just think "me me me". Whilst accepting that medical grounds do exist, we would hope that for twenty minutes or so, even those who technically meet the criteria could try and help by wearing a mask too (won't happen will it). If the asthma or condition is really that bad it probably isn't the greatest idea to be out and about much a global respiratory virus pandemic. A tad disappointing you need to seek that clarification on a website such as this really... | |||

"If im wearing a mask, and i see someone shopping without one. Why should i care? You need to read more then you'll care. Why not educate me? If im wearing a mask, surely I'm protected?" Ffs... The mask is for the protection of others.. Not for the wearer... And I know I know some people genuinely struggle with the concept of doing something which benefits others and themselves... The what's in it for me? Question. But guess what if we all wear them we are all slightly better protected than I'd we didn't. | |||

"Most people are NOT wearing masks right now. Trip to IKEA and Marks and Spencer and Boots and B&Q and Fuel and Abakhan in Liverpool in the last two days went like this: IKEA: Waited about 20mins in outdoor Q's of about 50 couples/groups in front & behind us, = Only about 5 masks in total. Not including us. ------------------------ Staff in IKEA of about 10 we saw, = 2 Masks. ------------------------ Mark and Spencer: No Q's. and 'ish @ a guess maybe 60/70 customers, = 8 Masks. Not including us. Staff in Marks and Spencer, = 5 Masks. ------------------------ B&Q: No Q's only one other customer wearing a mask excluding us. Not one member of staff with a mask. They are still wiping trolley hand-rails outside. Their one-way system (though marked on the floor) is not operating now, just go where you like. Tills are taking cash again with hand-to-hand swopping of change and till receipts. Fuel Asda: Saw no masks or gloves on anyone at all including customers and staff. ------------------------ Abakhan in Liverpool: Saw about 3 masks of about 40 customers across two floors. Tills are using hand-to-hand swopping of receipts, though taking card payments only. ------------------------ The parking meters in Liverpool are taking coins. Which obviously means the buttons etc are NOT being wiped by wandering city staff. In total. Nobody is really wearing anything at all. Didn't mention gloves because we didn't see any. StarBucks drive-thru was funny - at the window everything is proper and safe, slide-out-trays for your drinks and snax, card machine on a pole for your card-payments only - very chatty and delightful staff - then they got a drink wrong so she said park in the wait-zone and we will bring it to you. 5 mins later a member of staff brought us our 'lost' drink while wearing no gloves no mask and hanging onto the door/window of the car and asking us what we were doing with the rest of our day - from about a foot away.
Until the new Law come into effect - NOBODY IS WEARING MASKS !!!!
"New Law..... so having listened to a High up Police officer on the radion last week. Not wearing a mask is not a criminal offence Not wearing a mask in a shop. Is not a criminal offence Peoples they are guidance Not Law.... Can you see it police officers stationed outside every Asda Tesco ect. Mmmmm | |||

I can go to the gym from Saturday, jumping around and sweating in a class in close proximity to others. No masks required. If I want to pop into Tesco on the way home for a load of bread... mask on. Why am I more susceptible to Covid in Tesco than a gym? Because there are a maybe small percentage who dont need to got to the pub or gym....but they probably need to go for a food shop. Think about it! But if the comments I've read on recently this will never work as the thought of just wearing on in these very public place seems like a fate worse then death to them. But sadly death is what this is trying to prevent. You don’t need to be rude. I am “thinking about it” hence why I commented. I understand not everyone “needs” to use a gym. But the fact remains that people will, and they won’t be wearing masks, and therefore Covid can in theory still be spread that way. " Sorry if it came across rude to you as it was not intended. It was based on a lot of comments on a few thread I've read recently and not aimed at you entirely | |||

"The contradictions are endless. I (Ian) play grass roots football and I found out yesterday that grass roots football is allowed back next month so basically going and playing full contact 5 a side football for an hour with 9 other people without a face covering is absolutely fine but going into a shop for a bottle of milk, coming into contact with noone and being in that shop for 30 seconds or so isn't okay without a face covering. Something has to give as I think that's the biggest contradiction so far along with no face coverings in pubs/restaurants I agree re contractions.
