It’s all going well in Scotland with its stronger mask rules:-

Maybe they all caught it over the border in maskless England during their NYE celebrations?

Yep, that’ll be what happened.

You lot are just as extreme though. This thread has always attracted those at the most opinionated ends of the spectrum.

Also the right answer.

As someone said a few posts back why don’t the maskers carry on wearing them and the rest of us not?

Correct! I’ve never tried to compel someone to do something they don’t want to do.

Except get infected by you.

And around we go yet again.

What if it was 0.5%. Same stance?

How about 0.1%. Same stance?

Where is your line in the sand? I'm curious because "even 1%" becomes "if it saves just one life".

Are you going to wear a mask if prevents giving one person you meet, in, say, 30 days, covid? (what I'm hinting at here, is when are you going to stop? - CV19 isn't going anywhere so you are either going to draw your line, or, spend the rest of your precious life masked up)

No ideas - i'll see when I run out of masks - its no big deal to wear one and harming nobody else

Crack on and wear one but please don’t tell the rest of us that we should.

There's nothing "unprecedented" about a virus with a kill rate of less than 1%.

I wish the political leaders understood that simple fact.

No one is telling YOU that YOU should wear a mask.

You're exempt. You've told us this dozens of times.

Absolutely right.

Wish he would ‘show’ us his 200 pages of reasons.I suspect he has absolutely no evidence,other than what he has made up to satisfy his own warped way of thinking.I have yet to see him bring ANY credible evidence forward.He is bit of a nutter really.Probably belongs to the ‘flat earth society’!

Why do you think you can win an argument by hurling insults at anyone who disagrees with you?

In fairness, your 'logic' is pretty irritating!

Well I’ve been called worse than irritating. Mind you I don’t insult those with different views, nor would I refer to them as ‘Sonny’.

It's not an insult. You do come across as a bit odd. Sorry if that's news to you.

A bit odd because I won’t wear a mask? I’d say you people advocating total compliance are the odd ones.

Are we back to "won't" again? The exemption has vanished again.. For now..

Really? I didn’t say anything about the exemption.

Have you flown back from the US yet?

Next week, unless ours becomes one of the cancelled flights.

At least we won’t be needing a pre departure test or PCR on arrival.

Where are these ‘200 pages of reasons’? Still waiting.

There’s 210 pages now but you’ll need to read them yourself. I’m not doing it for you.

This afternoon for the first time since we arrived in Florida nearly 4 weeks ago we were asked to wear a mask when entering a shop. Several stores have masks required or recommended signs on their doors but few take much notice. We were going into Ralph Lauren in Orlando where we’d shopped before a couple of days ago. A man at the door asked if we wanted masks, we said no. He told us that masks were required so we headed for the door, then he changed his mind and asked us in if we wanted to shop. Just as well as Mrs BC wanted to buy shoes there.

I’ll wait for the usual suspects to criticise me for standing up against the shop policy. Who’s first?

Is this a five minute argument, or the full half hour?

Actually it’s been 7 months so far and the situation/argument has moved on.

I posted as this was the very first time I’d been asked to wear a mask since leaving Miami airport nearly 4 weeks ago.

Thanks. I'd posted in that thread but had forgotten the butt-hurt post.

You really call that a ‘butt-hurt’ post???

Here goes………

No, actually I’d criticise the shop.

If you were willing to walk out, you were adhering to their rules and not coming up with any exemption bull. They should have let you. Pussies.

No exemptions here but then I haven’t needed one.
