I’m convinced cotton masks are 99% psychological.

The post above yours explains that it is by video link as he is self-isolating.Ffs - I thought he was self isolating - does he have to?
That’s not Covid, that’s marriageMuch better thanks mate, certainly went to bed feeling a bit rubbish but slept well. Biggest symptom this morning is really bad earache on one side.
Oh I agree with this. There was a scientist guy on TV yesterday and he was asked if he would still wear a mask from the 19th (I think on Andrew Marr's show). He said he would in crowded places, not so much to protect himself, but to protect people around him from him.
He went on to add that a basic mask did protect the other people - well it protected them 20% more than not wearing a mask! I was shocked at how low that figure is. I bet if this was widely known, if this had been widely known, masks would have been binned months ago. But as you say, wearing one and seeing other people wearing them, makes us feel better, so it is mainly psychological.
