Anyone Ditching Masks

[eve1974]

And simply doing the hands, space part ?

[Paigntonian]

Think it's a good idea to continue to use them.

[MallyJ]

Nope...too many people haven't had a full set of jabs yet. I don't need any extra ailments....Of course it depends where I am..

[Buenchico]

Nope (other than outdoors, of course).

Even if most Covid restrictions are lifted next month, it's likely that the requirement to wear masks in supermarkets, etc, will remain in place until at least the end of the year (and possibly for much longer too).

Wonder if Razor Blade sales have dropped ,with the wearing of masks.

[douglas9401]

Not until after my big heist.

[calmck]

No masks still compulsory in shops etc but don't use at home. Delivery drivers still have to

[Peter Pedant]

yup - but have a manky paper version in the car - along with the clag and empty chip packets, to wear above my eye line if someone asks

[jourdain2]

OH has ditched his, but that is because behind one of his ears is now red raw. He has specs and hearing aids and the mask loops have put pressure on to the extent that I've been treating it for a week. He won't wear one again, decision made. Negligible risk, if any, to him or anyone else.

[webbo3]

Nope, i wear them on the bus and in the hospital I work in .

[Peter Pedant]

remember folks - transmission in bright dry sunlight does NOT occur

so get out there whilst the sun shines ( 3 d only in Manch)

[david small]

On the 21st my masks are retiring to a recycling bin located nearby a village on the Cornish coast.

[mallyh]

Peter what about the hot countries they get it ?

[woofgang]

mally, its not so much the heat as the open air.

I think to ditch the masks when in busy places where you don't know people would be foolish at this stage, Eve.
I know folk who've twittered on about them will do so as soon as possible which is their choice of course but terribly lacking in consideration of and care for others.

[Hopkirk]

A lot of the people I see wearing them could do with training on how to wear them.

[davebro]

I've been using the same (disposable) mask for over a year now - grown rather attached to it!

[gness]

I know what you mean, Hoppy. Were it not for the risk I'd do what I do with lads wearing jeans seven inches below their underpants...grab and hoik up.

Hope you've rinsed it out now and again, Dave.

[douglas9401]

Funny what upsets the equilibrium, unless it's a wee porky for comic effect.

[Smowball]

I still wear mine when out. Apart from having asthma I just wear it until I feel safe to not x

[pixie374]

It's only really in shops that I need it anyway. I'll just continue until they say otherwise.
