Masking Up

We're kind of moving to wearing "facial coverings" - better not use the "M" word - come July 24 although as ever there appears to be some confusion over where it is you should.

Let's simplify this: You won't be arrested or refused service IF you are wearing one so the number one place this applies is to visit a shop. Any shop.

Doesn't matter if it's Lidl, a sandwich bar or the jewellers and the entire point is to prevent you from spreading Covid which you may be carrying without realizing it from anyone else so when we all do it we're not potentially infecting each other.

It will help with virus infections such as flu and the common cold too which is why most people in South-east Asia just do it.

In England and Scotland you are doing this on the train, subway, tram and bus already because it's a condition of carriage presently - no mask, no travel, period.
Only car drivers and cyclists don't have to.

Places where you won't will be include places to eat or drink on the spot such cafés, pubs, and restaurants although there is no reason for your mask not to be one while lining up to be escorted to your table which may take minutes rather than seconds.

That's cos food and needs access to your mouth and even with crazy straw designs you still SHOULD NOT TOUCH your mask front while fitted so no you can't start feeding straws underneath of it.

It's highly likely the premises will have a sign saying the require it or it may be found on the shops Facebook or other website.  

Today's post was brought to you by the letter M and the number 1.

JUST DO IT!
