Will I feel a right fanny wearing a mask on a flight?

[Frivolatte]

I’ve got a flight on Friday and then again next week, have had the flu vaccine (private to set no other health issues context) but I’m spending Christmas with vulnerable oldies, also I really really don’t want to get ill over precious much needed leave time.

Tell me to wear a mask in the metal germ tube, and that I won’t feel like I’m the one carrying a lurgy myself.

Or is this overkill?

Wear a mask if you want. Nobody will care or look twice at you.

Respect others who have made the decision not to.

Nobody will look twice. Do whatever you want.

I always wear a mask on the tube home after I’ve had my ‘tache threaded. Nobody cares.

I wore one on a flight last week. Not many others were.
IMHO it does confer some protection for the simple reason that I don't touch my nose and mouth because they are covered. The flu virus can live on surfaces and you touch those and then touch mouth or nose and then you get the virus transferring. I figure the mask just means I don't do this. I don't actually care what other people think of me either !!

FFP3 masks were recommended as working by a professor on the radio.

Fiddling with masks means wearers touch just about everything and if it’s them with the virus, they spread it. Getting the jab is way more effective!

I don’t know how your Fanny will feel but I tend to wear masks on my face 😛
