Coronavirus

If having to place a bit of cotton over your face is the biggest challenge you face in life, you're in no place to complain.

I agree but with temperatures rising here in summer, I’m glad I don’t have to wear it as much anymore. Seems like the rules are now requiring them on public transport. The next six months in England is no reason to complain though, when it’s cold masks are a blessing. Plus the amount of anti vax whackjobs in the UK means it’s actually necessary.
 
Think I will probably always wear them on planes and in airports in future.

I am used to them now, managed a couple of runs with one on as a test. I remember going to Mecca in 2009 for the first time and seeing scores of Indonesians all wearing them constantly and thinking they were absolutely bonkers but it will be the norm for most folk now.
 
I enjoy the mask in this cold. Keeps the face warm and it stops me giving a disease to somebody else who might take it home and kill their gran. Its worth it.

It’s completely personal choice, but if people have vaccine or you are not unwell (coughing) why would you continue to wear one?
 
Hasn't there been a massive drop in flu and cold cases generally?
Or are we worse off losing our immunity to flu and colds if we stop them circulating?

Flu hasn’t existed this year - I believe at last check there was about 400 (start of sept) flu deaths in the U.K. Yearly average is 14k

But you can’t look at figures fully till end of year
