Well I won't be wearing one in my office!
No I am not currently wearing one at my kitchen table either. |

I don't have a huge issue with wearing a mask in certain situations.
I won't be going back to the office if I'm required to wear one though.

I wore one earlier in the week for the first prolonged period of time whilst I had my hair cut, not very pleasant as just got incredibly hot, plus I found myself holding my breath which wasn't the best idea!

I suppose it depends on the face covering used and there may be a period of trial and error before you find one that you are comfortable with.

The one thing about masks - it will massively slow the economic recovery. It will discourage people from going to the shops, cafes and bars. It'll discourage people from returning to the office.
We should be doing exactly the opposite unless and until there's a clear risk of a rise in infections, and at that point, any restrictions should only be on a hyper tactical local level.

I understand that some consider that masks will provide confidence and reassurance that it is safe to return to daily activities. |

Exactly the same reason I wore one for first time yesterday. 2 issues i need to work out. Firstly how to stop my bins steaming up, secondly must always remember to ensure my breath is minty fresh, I could smell my lunch |

Yeah I experienced the same Horlock. I did find it quite uncomfortable and was a relief to take it off once I got home! |

Also advised by the WHO, but apparently what do they know. |

Apparently washing up liquid on the gregories works? |

Cannot remember what its called but I have something to clean my glasses with that stops them steaming up, bought it as suffered the problem for years riding my bike in humid/wet weather! Yeah I experienced the same Horlock. I did find it quite uncomfortable and was a relief to take it off once I got home!
Aye it wasn't great, but if it protects other people as all the evidence suggests its a very small price to pay, I imagine being ventilated is a less pleasant experience. |

Looks to me like those who have a problem with masks are the same idiot's who wanted lockdown ended early, say it's just like the flu etc. Pricks.
Been pretty obvious for months that a mask would help, yet again the government here were slow to act.

I find them uncomfortable, but I still wear them. The discomfort is extremely mild in comparison to the discomfort other people might experience if I give them the virus.
