I won't wear a mask, hence I've stopped going into shops and have cancelled my el sombrero holiday for December. I agree with nophead. Masks are useless as 99 per cent of population don't wear them correctly.
If you didn’t wear a mask correctly in Tenerife a hefty fine might concentrate your mind.
I wear a mask, both in Tenerife and Uk because if I have Covid and am asymtomatic or if it is discovered in two or three months time that wearing one limits your chances of catching the virus then I figure I've lost nothing, And in the meantime, I am doing everything I can to ensure I don’t infect someone else. Doesn’t cause me inconvenience, doesn’t bother me to wear a mask even in 40° in Tenerife compared with what damage I may be inflicting on someone else. I’m not a scientist, epidemiologist, virologist or in any way qualified medically so I am ignorant and therefore respect the advice from people more qualified than myself.
I’m over 70, have buried a daughter at 32, have a husband with Alzheimer’s and so daily I do everything I can to make life a bit easier. Wearing a mask compared to daily problems is such a minor inconvenience I can’t be doing with all this chest thumping about how hard it is to wear a piece of material across your nose and mouth, and yes I do have asthma before anyone else starts. For heaven’s sake, how do you think people managed in ww2, or cope now in some of these countries where war ravaged your homes and very existence. What a load of wimps we’ve bred, who find wearing a mask so uncomfortable, against their human rights etc.etc. MAN UP, GET A GRIP and stop winging.
