It's funny that all you covidiots objecting to wearing masks, WHY it is such a chore to do so? If you went for a job where you were asked to wear hi viz jacket, hard hat, hair net, steel toe cap boots, etc etc, whould you refuse then? Ok, a face mask is oh so heavy and it could cause neck/spinal damage through the extra weight you are carrying around. EDIT. It just goes to show how ...

I was up at Oaklands Wood yesterday. Oaklands wood leads onto three fields that have a path running around them often used by dog walkers.  These three fields are up for consideration for housing development. They are known as the Teignmouth Road site in the Local Plan review. Someone has placed some A4 posters where access to the fields can be made from the wood giving information about this ...

Fresh air is great. Virus ridden air ain't. Wearing a mask in crowded places and keeping your distance is not being sheeple. It's being sensible.

The mask mandate came into force in England on 24th July 2020, until then few people wore them in shops or on transport, at that point last year covid cases had dropped to record low levels.  The mask mandate made no sense, and mask wearing didn't stop covid returning in the autumn and winter months.  Sheeple can continue to wear masks if they want, and the rest of us will enjoy the fresh air.

Masks were still mandated this time last year. Only selfish people didn't wear them then. And, erm, now. Johnson's idiocy, and peoples selfishness, caused the subsequent rise in infections that resulted in tens of thousand more people dying unnecessarily.

How do you explain covid almost being eliminated last June with minimal mask use and no vaccine?  I have never been able to receive an answer to this elephant in the room.

"It now seems that protective measures such as masking and distancing leading to lower exposure (getting a lower infectious dose) correlates with risk of death. So if you’re exposed to less virus the course of the infection is less severe. This has been long-suspected but the data is now supporting that. The decreases we’re seeing in morbidity and mortality are in part due to a very steep ...

What I do remember is that between March and June last year masks were not required and most people did not wear them in shops or on transport, yet by June cases and deaths had flatlined without a vaccine even in sight.  At that point masks were inexplicably mandated, but they did nothing to prevent cases rising in the autumn and winter, which indicates masks are useless and covid is yet another ...
