The reason the Govt is gradually bringing in the wearing of facemasks is pretty obvious to anyone who has been following the pandemic globally, particularly focusing on the southern hemisphere going into winter. In 6 to 8 weeks time, when the temperature starts to drop as autumn comes in, this virus is going to rip through this country like a hurricane (I was going to say tornado but it'll be ...
@Carer Absolute bullshit for one Im not Chinese so you cant blame me for it and for another I dont really give a toss what you think. If your prepared to follow like a good little sheep thats your choice but dont try blaming those who are prepared to use their brains and think for themselves about something created as an act of biological warfare by a communist country, who's goal is to ...
@ FredBasset I for one, hope that I NEVER meet you face to face. It's people like you (I am not allowed to tell you exactly what I really think of you) that have helped spread this awful virus, and keep it going in the future.
True, but we don't have to wear proper masks from 24th, just some kind of face covering.
I wonder if the reason we are now being told to wear masks now as opposed to some few weeks back is because of the very simple reason that more masks are available now. Not so very long ago they were like gold dust. Would have been a bit nonsensical (although nothing new about that though) for the gov. to tell people to wear masks when quite simply demand would have far exceeded supply and ...
And next comes compulsory vaccination... We're being softened up.

The point is this virus has the potential to run riot and kill many thousands there is no human immunity to it and no cure. Infection rates are on the increase so now is the time for extra measures to hold the infection rate down, remember 40% of those infected show no symptons everyone should be wearing a mask.
Please don't forget folks that wearing a facemask isn't for your protection, it's to stop you passing on the virus to others (if you have it, of course).
When deaths and infection rates were sky high and peaked a few months ago we were told face masks were of no or little benefit, now rates have fallen to a fraction of what they were we are suddenly being told masks are esssential. None of this makes any sense.
