Masks at the Arena (16 Viewers)

Put the vaccine in the £6 pints

People surely wouldn’t put mass produced lager in their bodies without knowing exactly what was in it? Especially since it can have side effects?

I sat a few times in a bar in new street station waiting for my train just watching the concourse it was clear 10-20% of people didn't have a mask even though it was mandatory (lets not pretend they were all exempt, even the society for Asthma suggested it was better to wear a mask than not) the amount of times people pushed past me in a shop to get something out of a fridge or off a shelf was unnerving and generally was the age group of the people we were trying to protect at the time. There is a larger proportion of selfish people in our society than you give credit for. If there wasn't it would be nowhere near as bad as it's been.

I'm guessing this was yesterday?

People are being a lot less covid friendly now than they were a year ago. I see what you are saying, but it wasn't really my point.

Here you go, go nuts:

I like how you think any of the people making those claims are ever going to read one piece of evidence for wearing masks.

Give me convenience or give me death!

I'm sure theres some people here I've never seen on the footbaling side of this forum. Rich74, Paxman, Hadjis_Goatee. Move those science denying crackpots and this thread to off topic seems the best idea.

Paxman often contributes about football, most of its nonsense however

Yeah, contributes about football, but if ever you want a weather vane about what's going to / should happen, go the opposite of whatever he says!

Does a Burberry scarf count as a "mask"

No, at that point it becomes a muzzle.

 

[SkyBlueMatt]

I will wear a mask and vaccine you all in the concourse.

Hiding in the rafters with one of these.

Nope, a few times last year and just after the restaurants reopened. Both times way before "freedom day".

Won’t have the “British people are arseholes” take TBH. We’ve generally lead the world on compliance without force at first, and in lack of vaccine skepticism. The loud idiots aren’t representative of most people.

On masks in particular, while we’re not the highest country, we’re in that group of 80-90% compliance and much better than places like Denmark, Netherlands, Australia, and Finland: https://www.imperial.ac.uk/media/im...ov-Covid-19-Behaviour-Tracker_20201020_vF.pdf

I think that tracks with the 10-20% that I was talking about doesn't it... to be fair I didn't say everyone but the arseholes aren't helping...

But the number of arseholes is among the best in the world. We could be in some countries where it’s 40-50%

well I am on Majorca at the moment and have only seen one person so far with no mask.

Id imagine an place where it’s entire economy is tourism is extra motivated. Doesn’t change that there’s many places much worse than the UK. We aren’t the best but we’re nowhere near the worst.

What are the worst countries then?

Posted this earlier. Research showing Finland, Netherlands both worse.

I still don't think we should be celebrating one in 5 being an arsehole that can't put others before themselves... but that's humans for you.

Can we celebrate 4 out of 5 being considerate?
