Exactly, don't want to wear a mask fine don't go on holiday don't go to events. Stay at home and whine about how st your choices have made life.
And now I'm off out kayaking sans mask
Sans life jacket would be more appropriate And now I'm off out kayaking sans mask

Looks like the bloody masks will be 'optional' from 19 July. I dare say the paranoid will be donning hazmat suits to go out shopping.
WTAF?Are you Julia Hartley-Brewer?

Regarding Anxiety - when discussing this above (someone's wife). Do you mean anxiety as in the feeling anxious we all do sometimes, or do you mean the "what the hell is going on! Call an ambulance !" Anxiety? Because the two are very different , a fact I think a lot of people are unaware of. Clearly lots of folk, through no fault of their own, think people going on about anxiety are "weak scaredy cat" type folk whereas you could not be further from the truth. It's a malfunction of the fight or flight system and really debilitating and terrifying when triggered. Just a thought.
This was me until I met someone with anxiety issues. Its not about being a bit worried about stuff at all, she would get "triggered" by certain situations and her body would go into meltdown - hyperventilation, shakes, sweats etc. Its not a trivial issue. bad company said:
Worrying that our inoculations are happening but Covid infection rising .
But hospitalisations and deaths are not following the rising cases trend, even accounting for the lag.Could this be because the vaccines are highly effective against severe illness, but don't actually prevent you from getting infected if you're exposed to the virus?

Do you not think that, just possibly, there could be some middle ground where 99% of the population reside?

You honestly think 99% of the population will continue to wear face nappies/comfort blankets/masks/[insert correct word here] when the legal mandate is dropped?I suppose those solo car drivers who wear them today might continue, & I dare say there will be a group who have had the st scared out of them over the past year will also. The vast majority of people will IMO ditch them pretty quickly.
I have great sympathy for the truly vulnerable, but surely they are now a tiny minority.

It's just masks. They've never been called anything else, except by those afflicted by Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD), a disease for which there sadly is no cure.
Hmm.... I suppose that means that most of my workforce, family & friends must suffer from this affliction.Electro1980 said:

Face coverings is the correct term.I really can't decide if this is trolling or just the ramblings of a bizarre old man.
How can anyone have contempt for a bit of cloth that covers your nose and mouth. Having that much disdain for them that he refers to them as muzzles.
It must be trolling.
