One you don't need a note from your doctor download the badge as it is this is nothing more than bullshit that people propagate the virus without prolonged contact.
Thought you were going to stop telling people not to wear masks in another topic?

Ok so instead of wearing a mask which even if you wore the poorest quality has been proven to reduce spreading of covid by at least 7%. Your suggesting not to wear a mask and just spread the 7% everywhere? Just seems your not bothered about protecting others as much as you can by doing more. So you'd rather unknowingly infect others and possibly cause death.

Also if you say N95 masks work then why don't you suggest to people to wear them instead. Rather than keep bombarding people with your anti masks messages?

You don't want to wear a mask fine. I've always said fine if people don't, just make sure you follow all the other measures and respect others. I'm merely stating that we should all try and prevent further spreading by adding more layers of protection. No need to go all pissy about it being not against the law or done for harassment. At the end of the day thats fine you do what you want. People who are doing things that you don't agree with, will just walk on past you while your being stopped by police who might fine you as your probably one to blow your lid off to them and cause more problems than it is worth.

We are all here to express our views. But in every message in every topic you seem to want to force your opinion as the one truth everyone should listen too.

So rather than tell people that they can tell you to shut up or put up. How about you be more considerate and actually have a sensible conversation with everyone instead of attacking everyone.

Masks do work if they're made out of something more substantial than fishnets.

They don't work 100%, but we shouldn't allow perfection to be the enemy of the good.

A basic neckscarf covering the nose and mouth protects better than nothing (something I expect these "I can't wear a mask" people to actually wear anyway when it gets cold, because they're talking tosh about masks), and a 3 layer cloth mask is a reasonable (and reasonably comfortable) thing you could buy for 3 or 4 quid that can be washed and reused for a long time (so there's no need to spend £15 or so on paper disposables, that's just lazyness). If you don't like wearing them then only use one in buildings and take it off outside. It's not hard, not rocket science, and not that big a burden IMO.

If this second lockdown get's extended into the run up to Christmas we are going to be buried under an unprecedented never-seen-before mountain of parcels.

Afraid an extension is pretty much guaranteed. No way are we going from 350,000 cases a week to a manageable level in 4 weeks.

Yep. Even SAGE member Sir Mark Walport has speculated the same.

How are we going to clear parcels, if many people in the office are using HTC's. The packets simply won't fit in. And there will be too many for packet drivers to take on board, with the big packets and customer collections also. Have no idea unless there's much more staff.
