Many people are choosing to cover their mouth and nose with online-bought or homemade masks or scarves, in spite of the advice of the World Health Organization and, in the UK, from Public Health England, that they are no protection against coronavirus.
Sure, if you can find them
Also no robust evidence condoms provide 100% protection.
Furthermore the wearing of masks for the public MUST be mandatory at stage one of lockdown exit..otherwise we will see a second wave. Assume we are all asymtomaic.. until proven otherwise. Wear a mask and save a life
WearAMask 😷
Simply answeris YES.. no need tho' for NHS certified mask.. public needs simple fabric masks Look at the countries which mandate mask wearing.. less cases.. much less death... wear a mask and save a life!!
it will feel safer, if not very helpful
Be done with this question already. It's better than having a respirator hooked up to your lungs. Masks may or may not work but I prefer not to take a chance. I still want to watch the Premier League.
Yes
Yes there is a huge likely hood they will help and a remote possibility it will cause harm. Its a no brainer. We need people to be getting the correct advice on how to wear them and that they should still follow all other advice. Instead of just do t wear them.
Yes,yes,yes.
Yes. Especially ugly people.
YES, they work, ask South Korea, Singapore, Taiwan and Japan. NHS staff say masks don't work, then why do medics wear them? and why are they all complaining about the lack of PPE?
In public OF COURSE!!!!!!
Masks is false sense of security. When I do surgery, wear not to infect open wound for patients protection. Now the Coronavirus is endemic. You don’t know who is infected 14 to 24 days so they can pass infection. To be sure wear mask and act as if everyone is infected to be safe!
Go ahead if it makes you feel better.
Yes, especially the suddenly enthusiastic huff and puff joggers seen everywhere nowadays
If I took the guardian seriously, I would be ashamed to show my face.
Well if you can't stop yourself from breathing/coughing/sneezing directly in other peoples faces then yeah sure you'll need it.
Working offshore, where people wear masks routinely for work, my concern would be potential contamination of face masks...especially re-using masks. To me, there is a significant risk of contaminating the inside of a face mask by surface contamination and constantly re-using it.
Yes please. Don't just say it is useless bc people will wear it wrongly. Do things in a correct way is the basic, right?
Yes
tithenai , just had to tag you for the image!
No, face masks don’t work for amateurs. Not if you have a beard or the wrong size mask.
NO, it can only be sales fun
No. It'll only make people even more fearful.
Yes. But even so, WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE!
'Most of all, there is no robust scientific evidence – in the form or trials – that ordinary masks block the virus from infecting people who wear them' Well either that's the NHS PPE problem solved or someone is talking bollocks.
Yep
I’ve started wearing a trilby.
Yes ... why is this even being debated now?
Yes, yes, yes, for the 1000th time, YES! Look at the best performing countries in the world (Taiwan and Vietnam)! All wear masks (compulsory now), and barely 350 cases nation-wide! Masks HELP! MUCH more than 'distancing'. TAIWAN isn't even in any lockdown! COVID19 Taiwan Masks
Yes.
what is mask?
