Will you continue to wear a mask?

You’ve made me feel better already! I was beginning to think it was just me being overly cautious. With the numbers (particularly daily deaths) so high, I don’t know why the government is removing simple things like mask-wearing. It gives totally mixed messages - on the one hand ‘get vaccinated’ whilst on the other hand ‘COVID’s not that bad now’. angry I think I’ll still be wearing my mask!

What? Don't you have to?

Not using public transport just now, but will wear a mask in shops. Trying to avoid crowded places. 16 out of 32 in GD’s class have covid / tested positive. Omicron may be milder, but I don’t want to get it, nevertheless.

Yes, definitely. The numbers infected are still too high for me to feel safe.

Yes definitely, why wouldn’t you.

I will wear one in shops. Public transport here still insists on masks (though I am avoiding it due to high levels of covid).

Not that I go on public transport; I wouldn’t want to either

FannyCornforth Thu 27-Jan-22 10:08:34

Yes. Definitely

I’ll be wearing mine

Just that really. With more or less all restrictions being lifted today, will you continue to wear a mask in shops and on public transport? Personally, I feel safer wearing a mask when out and about - but will I be the only one???
