So that I protect others and myself 

 

it’s not big deal to wear one - anyone not doing so are selfish

 

people who claim they can’t wear one because they can’t breathe properly should wear a visor - what’s their excuse then?

Best post on this thread imo, very succinct.

 

Yes people who do not wear one are very selfish, however much they trawl the internet to provide obscure references to support their anti mask views,  Even though i cannot stand them, I trust the advice given by whatever government in regard to face coverings before a forum of 'experts'.

 

Final point hit the nail on the head, if people cannot breathe with a mask, surely they are the very people who would benefit the most from the protection offered by a visor.  As to them crying to some website they they have been called out for not wearing a mask, claiming a disability hate crime.  Al i can say is I'd call out, politely, if i saw someone not wearing a seatbelt - and they are less likely to kill me than someone potentially carrying covid

 

*cannot stand the governments, I appreciate people will have different views on mask, and respect their informed opinions even if i disagree(

James always thinks it's sad,  tragic and pathetic when one of his contradictory,  hypocritical ramblings is cited to show up his latest contradictory,  hypocritical rambles.

 

A poster who refuses to take responsibility and ownership of what he says.  An absolute moral,  honesty,  humanity vacuum.

Protect them what? If you've got Covid you should be at home and if you're out and mixing you should have taken an LFT. Therefore no need for a mask.

I don't aim Nucky. sorry if you took it that way.  Was a general opinion,  I respect others views, and would prefer it a whole lot if the whole taking digs ate each other was cut out here.

 

Was just ,y general view, not aimed at anyone

Don;t visors offer people with breathing difficulties a measure of protection from OTHERS with covid - especially if those others dont wear a mask?

Och, lay off James, at least he's light hearted and entertaining, unlike some rancour on here.  And he always educates and shapes my opinions on covid, in that I take the opposite stance to whatever he's posting about now.

Can be asymptomatic at LTFs are not always 100% accurate 

 

plus it’s not a big Ask for people to wear one. Those who don’t or pretend to be exempt are selfish

You are very insensitive dear.  Some people have invisible disabilities which may mean they cant wear masks or anything on their pus. It maybe is a big ask for them to wear them. And breaking news...there are selfish people in this world.

No idea. The poster I quoted said he wears a mask to protect others. I wasn just saying he should be testing before mixing and if it's positive then he should be at home...ergo no need for a mask.

Yet they're considered accurate enough to test yourself out of isolation.

 

Anyone out and about who requires a mask as they may have Covid is very selfish indeed.

How often do you test to show yourself it is safe to go out without a mask?

This new line of bullshit being peddled as a hot take re masks and asymptomatic infection is cringeworthy.

Personally almost never, but it wasn't guidance in England. A stickler for the Scottish guidance though would surely do it every time?

 

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-59540250

 

If people follow that advice, the requirement for a mask is nil.

Taffin, you for a normally erudite and intelligent poster you are really letting yourself down perusing this.  Mask are for protection.  The only idiots are those who fail to wear them

 

Lol - is this how you get onto arguments in here?

 

Just disagree with you is all. jumped at the bait you posted, i do apprecciate your views - response was to the language

It's perhaps a new line for some but others may or may not have had the opposing view more than once.

Annoying that he can't make the game but there will be more 👍👍

 

Good that you're testing negative though and enjoy the game tonight! I'd love to be there but it'll be TV for me sadly.

Not wanting to start an argument today but why have you been testing for the last 9 days. Surely after you have tested negative  for two days  after having it you dont need to test anymore ? It took me around 10 days after my positive test to test negative two days in a row and then i stopped testing.

I have not had it.

 

I tested last Tuesday to go to the game, then I tested Wednesday-Friday to go to work/kids guitar lessons/kids football training as there was an outbreak in one of my children's classes at School. I tested on Saturday to go my parents and my ten year olds birthday party, this is when the kids tested positive, so party canceled. I have been testing since then as a close contact and as I am fully jagged and boosted I can go about my normal existence, like todays game.

 

They can get back out on Friday if they test negative tomorrow and Friday, I will then be able to stop testing, except for Saturday as I am going to Hospitality so I'll test then too.
