Enjoyed that plus it upsets the hysterical bedwetters. Subscribed.
I knew it would upset the majority of people, after all I think about 80% of the adult population are pro lockdown hide away freaks, its all that free money you see. In a year or so when there are a hell of a lot more people on the dole though I wonder if it will be them screaming at Starbucks when they realise the dole payments don't stretch to their usual fizzy latte.
I'm not sure who you have meant to upset? It seems everyone on here except you two, thinks the guy comes across as a bit of a pillock. No one seems upset by ig though.

You must try harder. smile

Just watched it and he comes across as a complete tt. Constantly to referring to a mask as a face nappy, just makes him sound like a cock.
I'm not fan of seing people in masks at all, but yeah he didn't come across well in that one bit.

Just a shouty irritating knobhead. There must be better ways of getting the message across than that.
I don't think there is a message to get across anymore, its a lost cause, you might as well have some fun with the bed wetter's in the mean time though.
Bed wetter's?? You seem like a nice bloke. Apologies I believe in science, and listening to the experts.
DR Mike Yeardon is both of those things and more, inc being a former CSO at pfizer. Perhaps you should listen to him. Open your mind a little

hehe

The guy going into starbucks without a mask did nothing wrong whatsoever.
As to who is the biggest cock the starbucks manager wins it by a mile with his non existent knoweledge of the law and his attempt to play racism jester
What an absolute knobber! Good to see that the police weren't interested.

Bedwetters get back behind you sofas!

I’m not a supporter of masks but that guy is a first class bellend.

Not for walking in without a mask, or refusing to wear one, but acting like a spoilt child and bringing members of the public into it.

He should simply vote with his wallet and go and buy his coffee somewhere else where they’re not arsed. Perhaps he could support a small independent place, which also in my experience serve infinitely better gear than Starbucks.

I'm still waiting for this science of making people wear crappy mask's (especially face shield) makes ball of a difference.

If they make a difference it’s to increase the infection rates.

The same masks are being used for days/weeks on end being repeatedly handled and left on tables and other surfaces. Many are then discarded as litter. I’ve witnessed youngster borrowing used masks before entering a shop. This behaviour can only increase infection rates.

Politicising the death of an 81 year old in a care home. Classy.

Have they run out of triathletes and Instagrammers?

It’s almost like they’re railing against a political leadership who’ve let their citizens die.

Weird that.

Yes, they'd all still be running triathlons and living forever otherwise.

I said that using the obituary of your 81 year old father to score political points is not very classy.

I’d say that’s the decision of his children. One based on anger and dismay at the action of his fellow citizens.

Whereas a random user on PH suggesting the death is just fine because it’s not like he’d be doing triathlons anyway is very much the opposite of what you think they should be. Strange how the standards you expect of them aren’t ones you aspire to.

That isn't what I said at all though is it?

So countries across the globe, epidemiologists all recommended wearing masks slow the spread of the virus and can help protect you from transmitting it to other people.

Are they all wrong? https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/...

It’s not a silver bullet, but alongside social distancing and hand washing can make a significant effort to reduce transmission.

It’s logical to assume that high grade masks used correctly will help prevent infections of Covid and other infection diseases. That’s why they’re used by medical people. Doctors and other medics use high grade masks, change them regularly and dispose of them responsibly.

Unfortunately the public aren’t following suit. The same masks are being used for days/weeks on end being repeatedly handled and left on tables and other surfaces. Many are then discarded as litter. I’ve witnessed youngster borrowing used masks before entering a shop. This behaviour can only increase infection rates.

In fact the moment they were mandated in the UK our infection rates increased. Coincidence perhaps, but probably something we shouldn't ignore?

The Lancet said:
In summary, the current best evidence includes the possibility of important relative and absolute benefits of wearing a facemask. Depending on the pandemic situation in a given geographical setting, the desirable consequences of wearing a facemask may or may not outweigh the undesirable consequences.
Hardly all the experts agreeing on the clear benefits of masks.

They might make some difference, sometimes but there isn't enough evidence.
