I've gone maskless in tesco twice and asda and have had no issues with staff, other shoppers or the police. You don't need to wear these vile masks or face coverings in these shops if you don't want to

Wow. Just wow. Wearing them isn't to save you, it's to save other people from you.

But how long do you spend in these shops ? Not long I’d expect!

But For the sake of not putting one on not just for your safety but for others is it really that big of a deal ? I’ve also gone in not wearing one only cause I’d forgotten it ! But how are they vile ? That’s a tad dramatic no ?

So you've spent the last 4 months killing people when you went shopping?

Good for you.

Pesky masks keeping people safe can be so damn inconvenient.

I'm guessing you don't indicate at roundabouts either?

It's funny, but before all of this, I thought it was only children who said things like, "you can't tell me what to do!"

After all, should adults really need to be told?!

I would think we could replace all of the Corona guidines with "Don't be an arsehole!" or, "Think of others!"

How do you know the police aren’t bothered? Do they have officers in the stores?

And vile face coverings? Some people make them sound like they’ve been stapled to you face. I even forgot I had mine on the other day. Grow a pair, soft lad.

You also don't need to go in the shops if you don't want go, OP. You can buy everything online.

Just saying.

P.S. Do you ever think of people who need to wear masks all day - e.g. health care staff?

Yes... it’s frustrating to say the least to read this when you have no choice but to wear them for long shifts. I hated them at first but it soon becomes second nature.

My mate has to wear one at work so I can imagine what it feels like. Apparently taking it off at the end of your shift is like taking a bra off when coming home from work!

I work in a shop and wear one all day, to be honest you get used to them quickly. I don’t have to wear one by law (as I’m working not shopping) however I choose to, to protect myself and my customers even if it’s a little bit less of a chance catching it.

Can’t write what I actually want to say as I’d get a ban. But put a mask on; they are effective in reducing the risk sharing and contracting Covid 19

A very selfish attitude indeed! It’s not about you OP, its about others.

The attitude mentioned gives probable insight into the general attitude of the OP.

Do you think protection is unecessary in swinging also?

Makes you wonder about those who don’t wear a face covering, what their general demeanour to sexual health is also!

Always one !! sadly for us all it's a ever increasing number !! and just gets really tiring to deal with them as the only reason most are alive is of because pesky rules that they would oppose now ? like food safety/seat belts/speed limits/health and safety the list is endless and even worse it has kept them alive to mainly disprove the likes of Darwin and the all the other so called experts/scientists but when you have a government minister once proudly stating " we've had enough of experts ??" ,we are all a firm believer ( or should) in personal freedoms to be who you want to be or even do what you want to do ?? but it's so called quest by the media for the magic "Balance" thingie that's led us to this as anyone with rather mad ideas can get their so called 5 minutes of fame ?? so....

I am exempt wearing a mask due to Asthma. I have been in a Sainsbury's, an Aldi and a Morrisons and not been challenged. The person who has asked me why I wasn't wearing a mask was a young lad outside Poundland.

Aggression rules OK it seems.

All these people saying no one is wearing masks makes me think I must live in the most compliant part of the UK as every where I go people are wearing them. My friend is selling them like hot cakes whilst off work shielding.

This whole mask debacle is just a nonsense.

If masks had any impact on the stop of spreading the virus it would have been mandatory from day dot.

The masks are now in place to condition us for the incoming vaccine.

They know they cant make it mandtory as there will be uproar so be prepared for sorry no entry to shops unless you have vacc certificate.

Sorry cant go on holiday without a vacc certificate.

Sorry your kids cant go to school without a vacc certificate.

We didn't wear them from day dot because British exceptionalism, other countries did.

That's nonsense. Masks were not mandatory from day dot for the same reason that masks aren't worn in shops to prevent flu. The reason they aren't worn for flu is because if you catch flu, the symptoms mean you aren't physically able to nip down to the shops especially during the contagious period.

However, as we all now know, many people with covid 19 are asymptomatic or have it mild. They can easily go to the shops and pass it on.

Hence the advice changing.

But of course, ignore the science and believe the crackpots.

I can pretty much guarantee everyone of the 50000 who died of Covid in the UK caught it from someone not wearing a mask.

I just think its selfish not to wear a mask when there are so many more vulnerable people about, but unless its legally binding it's your right to do what you choose just as its everyone elses right to call you selfish and stupid for doing so

Technically it's not a law , it's a guidence , people smoke while others are around , can cause secondary lung cancer and so on ,people drink become voilant and attack others putting them a risk , Theirs a risk factor in everything , it's personal choice don't wanna wear a mask then don't wear one , u wanna wear a mask then wear one ...

So a seatbelt has the same life saving capabilities as a cloth mask made in China?

"Go back 30+ years and the OP would've been complaining about vile seat belts.

You're so edgy with your non-conformity!

So a seatbelt has the same life saving capabilities as a cloth mask made in China?

If the government told you covid wasn’t catchable under 3ft would you crawl about?

"

Only the seatbelt was probably made in china too...

Has anyone seen the mask you wear to stop airborne respiratory problems from things like painting etc? It’s been made to conform to certain BS standards but the deadliest know virus to the human race can be stopped with a cloth mask you’ve bought of eBay that’s been knocked up in a Indian sweatshop somewhere?

They have already said that a fine is as a last resort and , their is no technical legislation which means if you was to appeal you will more than likely win your case

Very immature comment. You are asked to wear one to protect other if you have the virus. Not to protect yourself. Why be selfish. The concept only works if every one complies because sods law says the arsehole who doesnt is probably the one whos a carrier but doesn't know it and does pass it on.

I feel an underfunded police force has had public health foisted on them. And people should wear masks because it's the right thing to do in accordance with the current evidence.

I’m glad you’re ok, mate. Always better to put your own comfort above the safety of those you might infect while asymptomatically carrying the virus.

It would be ironically appropriate if you were to end up on a ventilator having been infected by someone sharing your idiotic and egotistical view, although I do not wish that on anyone.

However, your post should, as earlier suggested, be pinned to your profile as a badge of stupidity and ignorance.

I’ve had the virus and I wear a mask, and have one so for months. There’s no way of knowing yet what reinfection rates are, and if nothing else it gives peace of mind to those around you.

"This whole mask debacle is just a nonsense.

If masks had any impact on the stop of spreading the virus it would have been mandatory from day dot.

The masks are now in place to condition us for the incoming vaccine.

They know they cant make it mandtory as there will be uproar so be prepared for sorry no entry to shops unless you have vacc certificate.

Sorry cant go on holiday without a vacc certificate.

Sorry your kids cant go to school without a vacc certificate.

Take a chill pill Phil. Mandatory vaccination is not here at present and may never be, so why concern yourself? Besides, it'll be cheaper for the govt if it's not mandatory so my assumption is it'll never be.

That's nonsense. Masks were not mandatory from day dot for the same reason that masks aren't worn in shops to prevent flu. The reason they aren't worn for flu is because if you catch flu, the symptoms mean you aren't physically able to nip down to the shops especially during the contagious period.

However, as we all now know, many people with covid 19 are asymptomatic or have it mild. They can easily go to the shops and pass it on.

Hence the advice changing.

But of course, ignore the science and believe the crackpots.

"

The govt could hardly push for face coverings in the beginning due to the debacle of providing ppe to front line staff. There was a big fear of "toilet roll fever" in public panic buying up masks. For the same reason they are pushing sales of face coverings as opposed to masks.

ALL? No. It's his attitude of advocating non-compliance irrespective of his covid19 status. BTW don't forget, at present science is informing us of a temporary immunity. Even if the OP is immune for life, it would not stop cross contamination (but that's not a mask issue - I'm just pointing out you need to be aware of the facts regarding immunity).

It's not valid when you consider the idea is to get the economy running again. So more people will shop, more shops will open that cannot do the 2m ruling, so we now have the 1m+ ruling. The + equals a face covering.

OMG what a snowflake! Sorry for smoking..


"It is an individual choice , of someone chooses not to wear a mask then that's their decision.

I'll give u an example I don't smoke never have never would but if I walk down the street behind someone else who is smoking I'm breathing in their dirty air ... The same principle it's their individual choose to smoke but I could potentially suffer risk secondary smoke related illness

I can see the rational for that train of thought the R rate is at its lowest , the mortality rate at its lowest , the new confirmed cases at their lowest.

I can understand people thinking why now and the to late theory , I never said this was my opinion , however unlike the majority of people on this thread I like to think I am able to respect and understand someone else's decision even if it's a decision which could be deemed as unwise or against medical guidence , so long as they have the capacity to make a informed choice then it's not my place to chastise them , yes I can disagree with them but I don't have to call them every name under the sun like others have.

I think the problem is alot of people will argue it's abit late , face masks should have been introduced the second lockdown was relaxed

Try watching what's going on around the rest of the world.

I don't get this "too late" business. So because some people have had Covid we shouldn't try to stop others getting it too?

This isn't individual choice with no consequence to others.

We need to be responsible for each other, not just suit ourselves."

It might be an individual choice, but if you choose not to take care of those around you you're profoundly selfish and damaging to public health.

"Has anyone seen the mask you wear to stop airborne respiratory problems from things like painting etc? It’s been made to conform to certain BS standards but the deadliest know virus to the human race can be stopped with a cloth mask you’ve bought of eBay that’s been knocked up in a Indian sweatshop somewhere?

Ba ba bahhh

Are you a scientist or an epidemiologist?

Common sense prevails here I’d say....

You’re definitely a sheep.... surprised you made it past bird flu....

I am surprised you know how to tie your shoe laces. If known experts advise me to do something then guess what, I do it . Your excuse for not wearing a mask is ?

Do you honestly believe a mask is preventing the spread of Covid19?

The science says it does, I am guessing you and your mates on Facebook know differently

Enjoy you’re day, pay you’re taxes and don’t kick the dog when you arrive home because you’ve had a bad day.....

I will, make sure you wear a mask in the shops,

Ive got anxiety problems "

Fantastic thanks for providing the evidence I have just spoken about. Here we have one of the individuals , unable to understand or comprehend the logic of a balanced debate with perfectly valid arguements against why someone may or may not use a face mask

I’ve seen surgical masks littered in the road and bins- so pretty much defeats their purpose! If they were THAT essential there should be clinical bins all over the shops and roads!!! I’m sure anyone else working in healthcare can back me up on this!

It’s not just the wearing of the mask that protects, for effectiveness you need to think about you touching things/people before putting the mask on, taking it off and on between shops (if it’s a cloth one) then touching other surfaces..

That is why some of us, at this stage, are not totally convinced that the WAY they are being used at the moment is necessarily life saving..

I wear reusable masks, and wash/ sanitise my hands when I touch them. They go from my face straight into the washing machine.

I agree there should be more education on this...maybe sky and other media could put up advice on this ..like they do inbetween news slots ,telling us to wash our hands and so on. But pressing more guidance on wearing and disposing of masks. As what is obvious to some is not obvious to others.

This should be a commonality where those opposed to wearing them for whatever reasons and those who do wear them could find common ground..

A lot of people have not been out at all since late March and whilst they can now or shortly will I would reckon for them the sight of some of their local community not wearing masks will make them more wary of doing so..

So fave coverings are supposed to save you from a deadly virus that has a 99.8% recovery rate . If your mask works, what have you got to worry about if I don’t wear one ?

And to all you mask wearers who are going to preach to me about health, please make sure your trolleys do not contain any products containing sugar, fizzy pop, Kellogg’s breakfast cereal, tinned food, dairy products like cheese, GMO foods, alcohol, because if you eat any of those you have no consideration for your own health, never mind any one else’s !!!!

Staff members haven't been told to tackle people without them.

I mean, come on, these workers don't get paid enough as it is - to have to put up with more abuse whilst doing their job! "

they often have security outside shops in Asia where they insist people clean their hands before entering. Face masks is mandatory but the attitude is different, people are respectful and greater community spirit so it's natural for majority to wear them without being reminded

Last I heard, about 90% of spread occurs through respiratory transmission. 93% indoors or indoor/outdoor space. 2m distance cuts transmission by about 80%. Masks cut transmission too.

People are most contagious before they know they're sick.

We get them on. We get it done. We get our lives back.

Honest to God, it's a bit of cloth over your face to help everyone. We reduce suffering. We reduce economic damage. We reduce psychological damage.

Just wear the fucking mask.

Of course... but a mask isn't going to stop you from catching the virus in all environments and scenarios.

There is now a complacency about the whole situation. This is far more dangerous than if you are not wearing a mask.
