No need to wear a mask when you spend the journey in a cubicle on your own apparently.Apart from Faro to Porto
Where you were parting with more stuff than you were consuming
As rumour has it ;)

You don't. But you can wear a mask when inside, sit at a table with your group whilst you have a drink and put the mask back on when moving around. That's all people are asking. Obviously not the government because they don't appear to understand the basics of respiratory transmission, which is the major problem here IMO.Not really, how do you drink a beer through a mask?
Unless the plan has changed since they announced it is it not true that they are NOT using AZ for the booster just Pfeizer or a similar one of that type?One thing I don't understand is why we don't have a modified booster yet? The boosters being given are just a repeat of the vaccines given earlier in the year but they have always been less effective vs Delta.
This is especially true for the AZ vaccine which contains an Adenovirus and people not only gain antibodies against COVID but they gain antibodies vs the Adenovirus itself and so efficacy drops further.
Given the prevalence of the use of the AZ vaccine here, is this possibly why our cases are higher than anywhere else? It may also explain the ping pong of cases going on in Europe, for example Greece and Germany are seeing new case booms.
Expert blames reliance on AstraZeneca jab, waning immunity for UK case coronavirus rise
Waning immunity provided by coronavirus vaccines combined with the U.K.’s early reliance on the Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccine has contributed to the current spike in cases, which are close to reaching…www.politico.eu
If you think that is going to make a material difference I am keen to see the analysis.You don't.

Scientists do, countries that have kept masks seem to show it, and even if it's only a part of the difference, I can't see one good reason for not wearing them, as it's such a simple easy thing to do.If you think that is going to make a material difference I am keen to see the analysis.
WALES DATA
STILL GOING UP AND AWAY DESPITE STRICTER RULES THERE. DEATHS UP A LOT AGAIN TOO
13 deaths - was 4 deaths
3450 cases - was 2266 last week
16.7% positivity - was 12.4% last week
588 patients - was 575 yesterday & 515 last week
52 Ventilated - was 51 yesterday & 47 last week
NOTHING GOOD IN THESE NUMBERS SADLY
I haven't got any analysis but you don't have to be a scientist to understand that wearing a mask can prevent, or at the very least substantially reduce, airborne transmission. Why do you think doctors and dentists have worn them forIf you think that is going to make a material difference I am keen to see the analysis.
