Lies lies lies, this organisation only is good at telling lies! They snd China don’t even want to disclose the true nature of this virus which is killing thousands every day. Most doctors and countries do not have a clue what kind of virus they are dealing with!

We knew that already

Shaft

Unable? or Unwilling.......

In the long established WHO tradition of recommending everything and its opposite.

About time!!!!

But they don't work and are unhealthy for the wearer.

Known all along.....it’s as clear as the mask on your face it must keep something out. This Government decided we weren’t to be trusted to continue to self distance and wash hands if we wear a mask. Don’t know about you but I’m capable of all three!

The WHO? ? Oh, you mean BillGates ! Well, fck him.

They are always too many weeks too late on their guidelines...

WHO utterly discredited and China appeasers. Anyone with any sense will ignore anything this corrupt useless organisation comes out with - Good on Trump to stop funding the WHO!

The Guardian lies. The guidance has not been updated since 6th April. The WEBSITE was updated today. They’ve clearly used this to create fear.

Lol

but for gods sake without exhale valve

Is this to reduce fear?

Where do people get hold of these types of face mask? No point requesting it when there's no mention on how to source them.

Why hasn't Irish Govt made this a condition of 'reopening'? Just been in 2 v busy but small local shops today & I was only one wearing a mask in either! SimonHarrisTD CMOIreland
