And did you still contract covid? Asking as I work in healthcare, everyone wore masks but still ended up having an outbreak. I am starting to show symptoms so getfing tested but I've worn mask, visor, gloves, aprons, washed my hands, didn't touch my face etc I done everything I possibly could to not get it :( if I have got it then must show that ppe doesn't bloody work.

Did you eat in the same room with your colleagues? Or spend time without mask in anywhere else in work? I think that's when it spreads. Not so much in the wards where PPE is worn.

No I don't, the only time I take my ppe off is to get changed then I put it back on to walk back outside when I leave the building.

It's a difficult thing to prove where you contracted it though? You could have contracted it from elsewhere too? Shopping, socialising or even a family member whose was asymptomatic? So I don't think it proves that PPE is useless.
