Thats my impression anyway. People are too busy foostering with their mask as they walk in the door.

Let those that want to wear a mask wear one as was the case when the country had peak community transmission but mandatory is a step too far. To see people in shops working all day long wearing a mask behind a perspex screen its a sad sight that the fear factor created by this virus has led us to believe this is life. It’s unnecessary and definitely not sustainable. Its like the county lockdown scenario. Their doing it so we must do it too

Sanitise hands, card, wallet, boot lid handle, door handle. Get into car. Remove mask. You may not see me use the shop sanitiser because I'm buying my own by 500ml bottles. That doesn't make me anywhere near as dangerous as someone refusing to wear a mask.
timetogo1 wrote: » But then another difference between mine & your experience is that most of the people I've seen who do wear the masks are wearing them before they go into the shops. So we don't have the foostering bit. I pop mine on in the car and don't touch it until I come back out, am in the car and sanitise my hands. It seemed like common sense to me.
Pitch n Putt wrote: » Just a question Do you individual sanitise every item in your shopping when you arrive home ? If not the risk is still present from all those items and everything you handle whilst putting shopping away. This is the thing if people want to analyse every little thing. A mask a great routine like above can still have flaws.
