I think there should not really much debate about it. If you don't want to wear face shield don't. If people wants let them.

Nung isang araw, may matanda, ibinababa ang mask pagkatapos bumahing ng malakas. Nagkalat ng virus. Retain muna face shield pls...

Balik mo muna ninakaw mo.

Enough is enough, we've been since December walking outdoors like clowns with the face shields. Time to let stupidity go

TAMA TANGGALIN ANG FACESHIELD WALA NAMANG KWENTA YAN.
