I just cant take to this fella, dont trust him at all and the way he keeps banging on about how they hit the 100k tests as they said they would just makes me distrust him more.

I liked him prior to this crisis. He came across as honest, ready to answer questions without fudging and a nice bloke. Now he comes across as a lying, bullshitting weasel. Smarmy and sly, I'd love to give him a good hard slap.

There’s not a single sentence that’s incorrect unless I’ve had a stroke. Can you point out the mostly rubbish parts?

It seems a strange hill to die on. Of course masks are better than no masks. I can’t think of one reason why anybody would say different - especially the weird assumption that you’d be more at risk due to fiddling with them.

It does state on there that “Wearing a medical mask can limit the spread of certain respiratory viral diseases, including COVID-19.” I think at some stage wearing them in shops/public transport should be enforced, as it’s been stated on numerous occasions they’re only effective if everyone wears them and it’s our best chance of getting back to some normality, though I doubt we have the supply for everyone at this time.

It’s quite obvious Whitty/Valance played it down for supply reasons, rather than scientific one.

For what it’s worth, I understand why they did it. The NHS was having a PPE crisis - I’ve no idea if it still is.

The masks they use in hospitals are properly fitted and the staff know how to use them safely,medical grade is made to not let small particles through,the WHO weren't convinced on masks so can't blame our scientists really

Tell it the WHO ! They are only now advocating them and to use them properly

  • If you are healthy, you only need to wear a mask if you are taking care of a person with COVID-19.
  • Wear a mask if you are coughing or sneezing.
  • Masks are effective only when used in combination with frequent hand-cleaning with alcohol-based hand rub or soap and water.
  • If you wear a mask, then you must know how to use it and dispose of it properly.

Yeah wearing a mask is really tricky. Since it became law a week or so ago over here I’ve accidentally worn it on my elbow three times.
