correct its just another disease we will have to live with ! if people want to wear masks they can! i for one will never wear one ! its should be up to the individual and i cant see people falling for it anymore!
Do you realise the wearing of masks isn't actually for your benefit, it's for the benefit of the selfish folk around you that don't fancy a dose of your illness?
I hate mask wearing, and as a speccy four eyes find them particularly inconvenient. As far as having my liberties crushed by 'the man' I think I can put up with it for a bit on the bus or in the shops though.

I think the fact it doesn’t benefit them is exactly the reason that they moan about wearing masks.

Biggest problem is, for example, people like me, who’ve had 3 jabs and also had covid. So I can’t be arsed wearing a mask as it’s of no benefit, however that said now it’s mandatory then obviously I’ll have no choice but to make an effort.

the paper ones are a total waste of time ! i wore a snood up until the 1st of june just to be polite! i have not wore a face covering since ! anyone that wants to wear a mask to protect themselves is fine by me!

How do you know you won’t get Omnicron?

I'm not going to try and tell you the gaps in the mask are smaller than the virus - I get your reasoning. Still, if it cuts the transmission by x% then combined with other measures (hands, face, space etc) it seems a small price to pay to avoid another xmas lockdown or the NHS breaking.
 
Social media probably and the government wont be banging the drum over it as its completely untrue, not even a half truth, its just as transmissible with the vaccine than without.
Talking out of your backside.
The major study the other week found that wearing masks reduces transmission by 50%
Also which EU country with the least transmission has the tightest mask wearing regirme - Spain.
 
Lol. 2 posts later you’ve said masks don’t protect the wearer. Make your mind up.
Masks have never been to protect the wearer.
Masks significantly lessen the load a COVID positive person emits when breathing/coughing.

Given that a fair proportion of COVID positive people are asymptomatic, simply wearing a mask may well stop lots of people from contracting the virus.

Understand yet?

the country would not put up with any more lockdowns ! they also caused more harm than good!

I fully understand, you’re the one tying yourself in knots. I quite clearly said I can’t be arsed wearing a mask as I’m triple jabbed and had covid recently. Hence I can’t emit a covid load.

Not too hard to follow is it…..

..on the basis that you can't catch it again?
