Face coverings may remain mandatory in shops and other public places until a coronavirus vaccine is found.

Masks may remain compulsory until a vaccine is found – which could be at least until 2021 vaccine is found.

Shadow health secretary Jonathan Ashworth said: ‘Matt Hancock couldn’t tell us how long we’ll need to be wearing face masks but they should be honest with the public and be clear that it’s likely to last for months until we find a vaccine or we are safely through the pandemic.’

It may take a long time to find a vaccine! Luckily, I recently stocked up on protective masks and air purification systems from to help prevent the spread of the airborne virus.

Blimey...I didn't see that one coming 🙄.

🖕🏻

The 12th of never then

And again, it took us much longer than it took to any other reasonable country or nation. Closing the shops, closing school, wearing masks in transports, wearing masks in shops, testing, tracing, providing PPE...why is England always last?

Aw, shaddup

Utterly pointless, authoritarian law, which may help spread the virus. It is utterly shameful that BorisJohnson has allowed this to come in on his watch. I say that as a dedicated supporter, and (ex- as of yesterday) Conservative Party member.

It's not the black death ffs. What happened to just 'flattening the curve'?

So forever then. Absolutely fuckin’ marvellous.

So forever then.

BrexitDoor It’s the metro make it up as they go along they like to plant misinformation.

Prayers for us glasses wearers 🤣🤓

They had to go with a pic showing a young person with a bad haircut like his mum put a bowl on his head and cut around it.

How do you find a vaccine? Aren’t they developed?

BrexitDoor I don’t think so!

BrexitDoor This is the press again reporting things that have not been decided, and are purely only in discussion! As I say with Aviation - believe the rumour when it happens!

The retail sector is finished, no ones going to go!!

There isn’t really a vaccine for the common cold or flu. How on earth do they think they are going to cure this. NoToMasks

Fair enough

They could be forever 😂😂

I can guarantee when when the 24th comes not many will be wearing a mask in stores and nothing will be done about it. I'll wear one because I can still breathe in it and I'd rather wear a mask then be hooked up to a ventilator

Vaccine?! 😂🙄

IF pekple working in shops feel that unsafe THEY SHOULD BE OFF WORK!!! SIMPLE!!!

HEALTH, WARN FOR LENGTHY PERIODS! KNOW THEIR'S VIRTUALLY NO SOUND SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE THEY DO MUCH TO STOP SPREAD! KNOW NOTHING THEY ARE DOING IS BASED IN ANY REAL SCIENCE!!! & lastly! IT ISN'T THE INDIVIDUALS RESPONSIBILITY TO KEEP OTHER STRANGERS SAFE!...

Overly concerned about!!! (3) They're almost certainly NOT going to find a vaccine! (4) The MAJORITY aren't stupid enough to listen to UNSCIENTIFIC BULLSHIT! (5) THE MAJORITY aren't going to wear masks forever! (6)THE MAJORITY KNOW MASK DON'T STOP COVID-19!, ARE DANGEROUS TO...

To all wondering why we say NoToMasks it is because a line has been crossed. We did what was asked but now our whole way of life is changing. You ask us to get perspective well perhaps it is you who needs to do that before it is too late.

There’s has never been a successful coronavirus vaccine in the past and it takes 5-10 years to develop any SaFE vaccine! They all are bought and paid for by gates and big pharma. Medical tyranny!

Can you imagine trusting a vaccine which this Govt' had anything to do with it 🤔 Shambles

'may' doing VERY heavy lifting AGAIN...I doubt they'll last past august personally.

'May' = Made up story as they wont know for months.

RCaldelian Hmm

It will be to the end of 2020 mostly

Who didn’t see this coming. 'Just a few weeks” 'A little inconvenience” The scare tactics clearly didn’t work so they’re about to make life as uncomfortable as possible so you line up for your elixa like little sheep waiting for their bolt to the brain.

So that's permanent, then.

fuck off. I'm not wearing a mask & not getting any 'vaccine'.

First face coverings and then a mandated vaccine, but what's in the vaccine? Mercury? Animal cells? Or an rfid microchip? ID2020

Even if the virus is gone. What a farce. The voters will not stand for it
