How should masks be enforced in public?

[User158340]

Indoors in general (shops, public transport etc).

I don't believe in making it mandatory because there are people who are genuinely exempt but there's so many piss takers.

There should be 'medically exempt' badges dished out by GP's only, on prescription essentially.

This should have been GP led from the get go, not trusting the British public. We see where that gets us.

I disagree that our understanding of how this disease is spread has changed since March.

I think its far more likely that they panicked about not having enough masks for the NHS so said that to stop large numbers of people buying them.

I tried to buy masks in Feb and March and it was impossible- unless you had ALOT of money. I am pretty sure that’s why the advice is what it was!
