Mask or no mask when restrictions are lifted? Poll added

[Invisible Man's Bandage]

With the briefings from the government increasingly becoming more confident about the ending of all Covid-related restrictions on July 19th how do you feel about this?

Personally, once there is no legal obligation to wear a mask, socially distance or only meet up with a set number of people etc then I will be gladly celebrating our returned freedoms and I won't be taking any precautions from that point onwards. However, there may well be advisories for masks in certain settings and there will be people who will choose to continue to take precautions (maybe permanently).

What will you do?

I think mask wearing will still be around for some time to come.
As it is, i haven't worn one for 3 months due to having most of my left ear removed due to skin cancer, causes a few problems in shops when people shout at me.
Skin cancer on a Welshman, fcuk sake, it must be caused by fcuking rain

Because you can't hear them?

The funny thing is, i've been deaf since birth in my left ear.
When the docs said they'd have to take it off i said " take the fcuking thing, it's never worked anyway"
Bit of a problem wearing sunglasses now though

I am going to carry on as I've been doing for the last year or so. Mask up every time I go into a building. How do I know that the people inside have had 2 jabs?

I can't wait to never have to wear one again. I absolutely hate the things. I wear them, but only out of civil duty really. I miss faces, smiles, actual human interaction. It's miserable walking about seeing nothing but faces hidden behind masks, hearing muffled voices. Small talk is dead. They've been necessary, sure, but they're shite.

Might wear one on the tube during flu season going forwards to be honest.

It would be quite nice if people who had colds wore them on public transport out of consideration for the rest of us, but unlikely that will happen.

I don't mind them, actually quite nice at keeping your face warm when it's freezing cold over the winter.

Look forward to not having to wear one though.

But if you have it shouldn't affect you right?

Is it 100% effective? Cock on...I shall dispose of the mask!

You can still catch covid after vaccination. Just won't be so bad.

It's flu season here so I'm wearing a mask on trams and in the lifts in my building.
