Most face masks don’t work, especially’cloth ones’. The analogy from doctors (see Dr Buttar) it would be like putting a chicken wire fence around your garden to stop mosquitoes coming in!

That's why Boris got his pregnant misses to get in the same car after he's just popped out of icu the next day. Off on holidays my pregnant latest. Sick f

By saying only wear masks inside they are encouraging people to put masks on and off. This could make the mask worse than useless unless proper removal procedures are observed all the time.

Government advice for reopening you guessed it, we don't need em! Genius.

Here in Brazil it’s mandatory in my City and if you don’t wear a mask in any public space, you’ll get a penalty around $100..
UK should try to do the same thing maybe

I am glad you finally 'announced' message like this, I meant wearing masks can reduce the risk to get infected by diseases is a commonsense in Asia that even kids study in kindergarten would know

Is Parliament going to set an example?

[prof_hedgehog]

So i could wear a bandana, a buff, a scarf, a bandit hat and a ski mask. Can bikers then wear FULL FACE masks if they want to go riding?
