I wear them still, especially in public transport and shops.

(Unless it’s a shop with virtually none in it) x

I don’t think it’s that annoying anyway. I don’t understand why people find it as a “chore”

Having a medical condition which means you can't breathe properly without a mask isn't made any easier by wearing a mask.

It's not just not nice, it can be painful and debilitating.

Why be as selfish as to actually go out to a shop? Shop online, get a home delivery. Live in a virtual world, it may save one life! What happens if you infect someone whilst wearing your mask? They aren't 100 % effective are they, why would you take your chance of infecting someone, you can shop online, it's a small price to pay to stop someone's nan dying isn't it?

Plus you will know that you have done your bit in saving someone from dying, if you tell all your friends online as well, they'll think you're a nice person, a top fella.....

Easy for you maybe. I'll stick to distancing, late night shopping and ordering online.

I have asthma, it’s largely controlled. I wear a mask, but if I become breathless then I remove it, doesn’t matter where I am. I’ve gone this long without contracting it, no symptoms 2 clear tests. But I will still wear one - how is that being selfish?

F*** your high horse. This is about people's lives - your emotional sensitivity to perceiving people as holding a moral high ground when they just care about people getting ill and dieing is your problem and contemptible.

London/Essex... ish... Romford to be exact

Wearing a mask is only compulsory on public transport and in shops right? But gyms, hospitality, offices, everywhere else in fact, it is perfectly OK not to wear a mask? This denotes to me that they 'Government' are expecting the virus(es) to work its way through the population; it's just they hope it is slowed down a fraction with the obligatory mask rule. Does that seem accurate? Otherwise I cannot see the logic. I assume there's some logic involved?

Well, it's pretty pointless wearing a.face covering in a pub or restaurant, how are you supposed to eat or drink?

And exercising vigorously wearing one may not be such a good idea

The logic is that the government are frightened that the situation will go completely to shit, so they are doing something. They are also frightened of looking like they have over reacted, so they will minimise what they actually do. They are also never going to consult real scientists instead of the puppet ones that they have on payroll, and even if they did, are both too fucking stupid to understand what the scientists say and too fucking venal to do the right thing without skimming money out of it themselves.

My daughter has had chronic asthma since the age of 3, she's now 23 and works in a supermarket. Before covid she had an ambulance called once in 2 years at work because she had a major attack. When covid struck and mask wearing became mandatory, it soon became evident after another ambulance was called she really struggles to wear a mask. She was told by paramedics, and doctors she should not wear a mask. She tried and despite wearing the lanyard and a badge supplied by the supermarket she works for she still got abuse from customers. She still insist on wearing a mask despite our, her managers and medical advise due to the abuse she receives if she doesn't. So far since covid she has been blue lighted from work to hospital 3 time with her asthma.

Does seem a bit odd you shouldn’t wear one while stood up in a pub. Even a little bit of mask wearing might help. Wouldn’t be averse for a cheeky circuit breaker and instructions to work from home where you can as well.

And as for your request OP I will take mask wearing under advisement. I managed to do all the way through to freedom day but I now struggle as it got a bit too much for me.

"Wear a mask stopping being selfish its a small thing to do to save a life. That could be someones nan or mum you infect and potential just cos you wont wear a mask "

Wearing a mask for 10 minutes in Tesco is not going to save anyone's life. There is no evidence they've made any difference to infection rates anywhere.

People say it's "just" a mask but they are irritating, they steam up glasses, they make communication harder, they're damaging for children's development, terrible for the environment, they are dehumanising. I am never wearing those disgusting things again.

You must push back against it or they’ll never go away.

Scotland has nearly 70% vaccination rate and they’ve been wearing masks for months and their cases are still rising.

They make no difference as all the data shows, it’s just theatre to keep the fear factor going.

Do your bit and ditch the mask. Stop listening to the government fear propaganda.

I have just been shopping in my local Aldi and it was packed, probably because the snow stopped people getting out over the weekend.

I put my mask on as it was so busy ( my face my choice, don't criticise me ) but I was surprised that hardly anyone was wearing one compared to the majority who were last week

It's almost as though people are saying f**k it we aren't going to be told what to do again

Excellent. I'd been planning to wear masks in winter to mitigate against flu as well

I'm so glad my actions have such a positive impact.

Why not? TFL for example have never enforced the mandatory face covering wearing the police have also said they are not going to enforce it and a lot of shops are now coming out saying the same thing.

You are absolutely right! Travelling on public transport and going into shops without face coverings because it is not enforced at a local level is not gangster, even gangsters have morals that look after their own.

Wearing a mask for 10 minutes in Tesco is not going to save anyone's life. There is no evidence they've made any difference to infection rates anywhere.

I have a very weak imune system, due to previous illnesses, so things like this concern me possably more than some. i have worn a mask since day one when i have to go out, i try to avoid crowded places tho, the amount of people not wearing one, ore even social disdancing amazes me, we will only beat this if we all play by the rules.

Yes i know masks arent perfect, but every little helps.

Its selfish to not think of others, this world is too much im allright jack. Think of others sometimes.

It's not though is it because you have absolutely no idea why that person you come across in the street isn't wearing a face covering so the best thing you can do is put yours on and keep your distance from those that don't and also bear in mind people that know better than you have decided that our people for very valid reasons for people to be exempt.

Our little part of the thread has nothing to do with a random person in the street, it was about the guy who posted about not wearing a disgusting face mask again, not exempt just doesn't want to wear one.

I would also suggest there are people that know better than you who have advised people who can wear masks to wear them.

"I have just been shopping in my local Aldi and it was packed, probably because the snow stopped people getting out over the weekend.

I put my mask on as it was so busy ( my face my choice, don't criticise me ) but I was surprised that hardly anyone was wearing one compared to the majority who were last week

It's almost as though people are saying f**k it we aren't going to be told what to do again"

We were told at work (supermarket) we have to wear them again from tomoz! So of course I will as I will in other shops but only because I comply not because I think I should! X

There are lots of decent, intelligent people that can't where them for their own reasons so to suggest anyone that doesn't isn't decent or intelligent is despicable.

And people making excuses I have asthma and it's not nice wearing one but watching some die an unpleasant death is far far worse.

Stop being selfish

Having a medical condition which means you can't breathe properly without a mask isn't made any easier by wearing a mask.

It's not just not nice, it can be painful and debilitating.

There is a lot of nonsense being written about masks.

First and foremost, if the wearer does not have covid wearing a mask will not save anybody from being infected, not even the wearer.

Second if the mask wearer knows they are infected they should be quarantining themselves and not being in public places.

In reality wearing a mask is only effective if the person wearing it had caught covid but has not realised they have covid.

Asthma covers a wide scope of illness from being barely affected to being bedbound, wearing a mask may not have any effect on one person with asthma but may make another asthmatic person unable to breath.

Don’t be judgmental!

We suggest if you can wear a mask then wear one as advised, but don’t judge others as we do not know their circumsances.

The whole thing is an absolute shambles.

Masks work. That’s a proven fact. However the shitty bit of cloth people wear around there face all day and hasn’t been washed for 2 weeks isn’t helping anyone.

A lot of people still seem to think that wearing a mask protects “them” from catching covid. It doesn’t. It protects other people.

This whole new rule doesn’t make any sense tho. But that’s no surprise! What about work places, what about about gym, cinemas, pubs, restaurants etc.

The best thing people can do is get vaccinated. It’s not 100% yes there will still be positive cases, but being vaccinated means you’re a lot safer and there is a much reduced risk of getting seriously ill.

I’d love to see evidence of masks working but there isn’t any.

Wales and Scotland have had mandatory mask wearing for the last 3 months in retail, transport setting etc but cases have been higher than in many parts of England. Germany even banned standard face masks in favour of clinical grade face masks and look at the case rate there!

Now getting hysterical over covid again. This will never end!

I wore one with goggles for the first week after seeing the videos of people dropping dead in the streets in Wuhan at the “outbreak”. The same videos projected across the world which initiated a lockstep approach to combat the “virus”. Funnily enough I didn’t see any footage from any other parts of the world replicating in some nature the severity of said “virus”. You know people dying in the streets. I live pretty much in a place full of elderly people in a semi warden run property. None died there most continued seeing their families.

I will do nothing that is expected if logically it makes no sense. If you prefer to pacify yourselves feel free, I think no less of none.

Fully believe most people will ignore them. By March earlier this year (last period of restrictions), a huge proportion of the Birmingham population was ignoring them. Reports from other cities similar. This time (if it happens), even more will ignore them.

I think those who think the majority will comply are living in denial.

The stay at home bit. Feb and March this year it was ignored by huge percentages in the city. People coming and going from friends and families houses all the time. I was stuck in traffic on evenings between Birmingham and Wolverhampton. I understand it’s different in less populated rural areas where more complied.

Mask wearing is certainly a visual indicator of how people are responding to guidelines and I guess if people are not overly concerned about going to shops, pubs and restaurants a lockdown is not really a problem to them.

Many people don't like confrontation doesn't make you a chicken, anyway you wearing a mask helps you, if they don't wear one they are at more risk than you are. Let people do what they like.

At the end of the day I could go grocery shopping for 30 mins wearing a mask then go to the pub for the night and not wear one, I'd be closer to people in a pub than a supermarket so what's the point in wearing one at all

Many people don't like confrontation doesn't make you a chicken, anyway you wearing a mask helps you, if they don't wear one they are at more risk than you are. Let people do what they like.

Exactly! All a load of bollocks! X

That's just it u dont have to prove anything! U can be "excempt" and not wear one it's their

prerogative and tbh I dont think people shd have to wear them and single them selves out I dont give a flying fuck wear a mask dont wear one wear a lanyard or dont ! I only wear it because I conform! Chicken me dont like confrontation x

make you a chicken, anyway you wearing a mask helps you, if they don't wear one they are at more risk than you are. Let people do what they like.

At the end of the day I could go grocery shopping for 30 mins wearing a mask then go to the pub for the night and not wear one, I'd be closer to people in a pub than a

supermarket so what's the point in wearing one at all

He looks to be saying....Selfish people should wear a mask

Wear a mask Boris and resign over 165000 people being dead and around a 1000 people a week dying since August.

I was on the bus, wearing my face mask, coming home from the shops yesterday and after I got up to get off, somebody sneezed behind me. I turned round, as did a few others and there was a guy behind me who was the one who sneezed and I noticed he wasn't wearing a face mask. I just thought "you selfish sod". He was the only one on the bus who wasn't wearing a mask and he had the nerve to give me a dirty look after we both got off at the same stop!

And how do you he wasn't exempt? So you have no idea if he was selfish or not so maybe you deserved the dirty look. If he was sneezing you should not have turned your face towards him!

Coronavirus has a diameter of 0.12 microns. The holes in common paper masks, 2 microns. N95 masks, 0.3 microns. FFP2 masks, 0.3 microns. Only professional masks such as FFP3 and P100 have filtration fine enough to stop the virus.

The advantage of wearing a common mask ?, it reduces the reach of your breath to others around you. Disadvantages ?, they DON'T stop viruses and greatly increase the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) that you'll breathe back in and hence less oxygen. In small amounts it can make you feel faint, tired.

He isn't exempt. Someone actually asked him why he wasn't wearing one and he said "because I don't want to". People automatically turn to look but at least our germs weren't on him as we were all wearing masks so we're were protected. I have friends who have asthma who wear masks when out and travelling and they're ok x

How does a mask not stop

How does a mask not stop a 0.12 micron virus particle yet it can stop a carbon dioxide particle which is 0.33 nanometres that is 0.00033 microns. If you are going to use science you have to be consistent. Any mask can reduce viral load exuded by a person and no it doesn't increase the amount of carbon dioxide you breath in.

Someone needs to invent either a mask with reduced intercourse between exhaled and inhaled air, or, a mouth fitting diverter valve which releases the CO2 laden exhaled breath via another route,filtered of course to trap any covid particles which have survived the journey in and out again.

Ideally the CO2 could be recovered and sold to fire extinguisher and fizzy drinks manufacturers.

No compliance isn't easier its sometimes uncomfortable to wear. Much easier not to wear a mask and spread your diseases about.

How does a mask not stop

Some people will look for any excuse not to wear a mask including ignoring the fact that the virus isn't actually truly airborne it is aerosolbourne as it is carried in the water droplets exhaled which are much larger. I have had the mask discussion many times on this forum in the past two years and still i see people that don't understand the simple fact that masks do work

Having worked in laboratories for three decades "masks do work" is a very vague and incorrect statement. There are masks available that DO stop viruses and are specifically designed to do so but they are very expensive and not commonly available. 'Common' paper masks only slightly reduce transmission between people in close proximity. Yes an exhaled virus is mostly accompanied by water droplets yet not all and those that are, soon dry.

Anything placed in front of your mouth WILL produce resistance to airflow so you will be breathing back in more CO2 than in open air.

But you said it won't stop a virus particles getting out which are about a 1000 times smaller than CO2 but it will keep CO2 particles in. It's all about gas pressures which inside and out of a typical mass is pretty much identical the gas will readily mix. So the CO2 level in a mask by the time you take a breath will be pretty much what the bulk CO2 level. If what you are saying is true operating staff in hospitals would have been keeling over for years.

I wear a mask all day, happy to wear one in shops etc.

Never found putting a piece of paper in front of my face an inconvenience.

There again, don't find washing my hands a great effort either.

But I tend to go with the flow, I'm one of those sheep but rather be a sheep than a drama queen.

I don’t think it’s that annoying anyway. I don’t understand why people find it as a “chore”"

They're also brilliant for cursing and muttering under your breath in supermarkets.

Try it, just mutter 'twat' when you walked past someone, then look around in surprise and point at a pensioner while shaking your head.

Good for you..I agree it’s no great hardship. Haven’t had a cold in two years so I’m intending to keep going with it… especially on a winter commute

I asked someone next to me to mask up on a train as someone in my immediate family is on chemo… I got abuse back of course.

Obviously wearing a mask has advantages but getting worked up about people not wearing one in a shop for ten minutes when there are people in crowded pubs and restaurants with not a mask in sight makes no sense to me.

The thing is, I don’t really think there are many people that can’t genuinely wear a mask. That’s my honest opinion, and if people who can wear one did so, it would help everyone, including those that genuinely feel they can’t.

But the difficulty is how do you differentiate them which is why I think we just need to be kind.

I think it was mind that said last week they have been Inundated with people with mental health problems saying they are frightened to go out because they can't wear a mask because they get too stressed and have panic attacks and are frightened of being shouted at or abused.
