" By LogJamFind posts by LogJam Man 2 hours ago Chicago Well they are not compulsory over here nation wise yet but strangely people with breathing difficulties do wear then to protect themselves. I wonder if its being told to wear one that is an issue with many that is the issue. " This I totally agree with | |||

"Continuation of previous thread.. I've seen several people quite asthma but the website asthmauk says it's NOT an excuse and I'd have to agree as my wife is asthmatic and has absolutely no problem wearing a face covering in fact I hate them more than she does. " Your wife is lucky then, my mother in law has lung cancer and asthma, her lung cancer is inoperatable because it is in her only “good” lung. She is one person who cannot wear a face mask as she would suffocate even if she wore it for more than a few minutes as her lung power is so depleted. What people like you do not realise is how discouraging it is for people who are struggling to live to be questioned by all and sundry and be expected to were a tag explaining they are on death's door or other types of abuse because they don't wear a mask. As for what Asthma UK state their website says "There isn’t a blanket rule about face covering exemptions for everyone with asthma. But if you find it impossible to wear a face covering for health reasons, you don’t have to wear one. An example of this might be if a mask makes you too breathless." | |||

" You can not compare a car accident to an invisible virus " Is it not my right to be able to make any comparison I like when my comparison isn't inciting harm to others, and I am sure a microscopic virus will not get offended by such a comparison. comparing irresponsible actions when the outcome is the same is an apology.. It's like saying that driving too fast is perfectly safe because you have never injured anybody, therefore it's got to be safe.. You never saw the person who had to swerve to avoid you and who ended up crashing, so you continue thinking that speeding is perfectly safe.. The responsibility for your actions are yours alone and if you do not consider the direct and indirect consequences of your actions, then that an act of irresponsibility. | |||

" I would have thought your mother in law would struggle just walking around regardless off a face mask so wouldn’t be going to shops etc so wearing a face mask must surely be irrelevant to her? | |||

"The face masks are mainly to protect others from you. I can understand many have reasons not to wear one, but what do you do if you develop a cough or temperature or loss of smell? Do you still go out without a mask?" I'm sure there are some who will ignore the signs and still go out rather than isolating. I'm more concerned about those who are asymptomatic, that's pretty scary.. A good friend contracted covid right at the start of lockdown, she caught it off her grandson who wasn't aware he had it at the time.. she died a few weeks later. Her grandson now lives with the personal guilt that he was responsible. | |||

"I don't wear a mask because it's against my freedom. I don't want to wear one and no one can make me. They don't work anyway, I can breathe through the fabric easily, so I know tiny elements can still get through, so what's the point? If anyone in a shop tells me to wear one, I call them a 'Karen' and it makes me feel really good. If I catch it, I'll be fine because I'm healthy. And I don't care about old people and fat people and those ones with that tube thingy that's a bit like Dark Vaider All of my friend share articles online and I've done more studyying than most scientisters. I'm a sovereign citizen and it's against my first constitutional right as a citizen of earth. This Bill Gates virus is fake news. It's all a lie to help the aliens stop us from lip reading each other when we're all tied up. WAKE UP SHEEPLE! Aye. I wear a mask. Even my 2yr old son can wear one, and he's got the attention span of some of the cretins in here. So grow up ya bunch o' limpits, put a mask on and stop making things up. " | |||

"Well said Tom and Lisa. I don't wear one, simply because it's all bollox and scaremongering. If masks work then there's no need to distance. If distancing works then there's no need for masks. Clearly neither work and neither do lockdowns. Remove restrictions, end the pointless lockdowns, learn to live with the virus and we're back to normal overnight. " I suggest you read Tom and Lisa’s thread again. Carefully. I agree with them and as you do too, you’ll be wearing a mask in future | |||

"Continuation of previous thread.. questions aimed at those that do not have a valid reason to not wear a face mask... 1 - Do you wear a face mask when required (on public transport, in shops, when not seated in a pub or restaurant)? 2 - if no, what is your justification for not wearing one? 1 - No. 2 - my private and confidential medical history is exactly that, private and confidential! My right to not disclose this information is legally protected not only by data protection laws but also by disability discrimination laws too! If you have a valid reason, that's perfectly fine and nobody would expect you to disclose that personal information. The aim of the thread is to try to understand why those who should wear a mask, don't.. But you do tho by asking those who choose not to wear one to justify themselves Whether anyone has a valid reason or not it has nothing to do with anyone " I appreciate what you are saying but the argument is that the health and safety of the nation and saving lives comes above whether people should disclose their exemption or not. Trouble is to many people are making out they have an exemption when in fact they do t. It's the way people are in this country and please don't ask me for my evidence on this. It's fact.

"I am exempt so I don't have to. I suffer with respiratory issues so not ideal. It don't stop me wearing a mask though though it makes breathing sometimes more of an issue. But I respect and care for other peoples health I am not a born again twat. So your exemptions bollocks then? Oh and in question to your answer... what are you?!" Why is it bollocks ? The poster has pointed out that although they COULD use a medical exemption they choose not to as they are choosing to try to think of the majority, as opposed to just themselves. Would masks help if everybody who DIDNT have a genuine exemption, actually wear them - I’ve no idea. But until you try you don’t know - process of elimination. Yes people are sick of the contradictory advice/rules etc etc - but the “fuck it I’m alright jack” attitude so prevalent in society is PERHAPS contributing to a second spike. And how many of the people who are ignoring advice/rules were stood outside supermarkets slagging off other people for stockpiling earlier in the year? Would they be the same people who if THEY, or somebody close to them, fell seriously ill with Covid because they’d been in contact with people who didn’t think the rules should apply to them, would then be complaining that people had been selfish? | |||

"Ugh, cant we all be a little precious! The OP asked for responses from those who make the decision to not wear a mask. Therefore, ones who are exempt need not have replied and we didn't need to go into all the 'it's my business, not yours' malarkey. I think the fellow from the US may be right suggesting the biggest problem is we're being told to wear them and we don't like being told what to do, do we."

No ones business people shouldn't have to justify why they dont wear one ! X" If you have No medical reason, for not wearing one, Then you should be wearing one. It has everything to do with everybody, after all you are risking them without any reason at all. Yesterday we had a young couple behind us, entering a shop. The female said to her boyfriend "oh shit we have left our masks in the car" He replied " never mind, if anyone asks, we have asthma" How embarrassing for them, when a Guy standing behind them was one of my Husband's ex colleagues and pulled out his Warrant Card and gave them a bollocking.

"I don't wear a mask because it's against my freedom. I don't want to wear one and no one can make me. They don't work anyway, I can breathe through the fabric easily, so I know tiny elements can still get through, so what's the point? If anyone in a shop tells me to wear one, I call them a 'Karen' and it makes me feel really good. If I catch it, I'll be fine because I'm healthy. And I don't care about old people and fat people and those ones with that tube thingy that's a bit like Dark Vaider All of my friend share articles online and I've done more studyying than most scientisters. I'm a sovereign citizen and it's against my first constitutional right as a citizen of earth. This Bill Gates virus is fake news. It's all a lie to help the aliens stop us from lip reading each other when we're all tied up. WAKE UP SHEEPLE! Aye. I wear a mask. Even my 2yr old son can wear one, and he's got the attention span of some of the cretins in here. So grow up ya bunch o' limpits, put a mask on and stop making things up. " Nice ! | |||

People should wear them correctly, ie, not under their chin etc. Absolutely useless when worn like this | |||

No, I mean isolating themselves away from the virus. I think the food /pay thing is a little dramatic. I'm sure you could have your food delivered and that benefits would be available. | |||

"I wear mine when out and about even at work. I hate it as my glasses steam up but it makes me feel a little safer. Anybody not wearing one when they should should be fined more than £100 Unless they have one of 30 plus reasons that make them exempt Well all those that are exempt can still wear a face shield Totally agree, but they moan about that, and suddenly say "but I'm entitled" Those that are exempt legally do not have to wear a face mask What I'm saying is nobody believes anyone without a mask now!

"For the the people who say they "can't", if they are that ill, they should be isolating! Surely? Do you mean shielding ? You isolate when you have covid 19 or have had close contact with someone with it. Shielding has ended now for most people. I wouldnt get paid nor get food etc if i shielded now. No, I mean isolating themselves away from the virus. I think the food /pay thing is a little dramatic. I'm sure you could have your food delivered and that benefits would be available. I wouldnt get paid and benefits take a while to sort out. Im unable to get a food delivety slot. Also i would lose my job as i dont have a legal reason to isolate. I can only legally isolate if i have covid or i have been in contact with someone with it. I had the shielding letter but that ended ages ago .... although i didnt shield anyway, i carried on working as im an essential worker. Benefits are giving money up front, so no worry there. Are you really not able to get any food delivered? The supermarkets all deliver! Community helpers will shop and deliver to you. Where do you live not to be able to get food delivered? Have you tried? Contact your local food bank, they deliver. I think you have lots of options but you won't take them Dont b ridiculous! Benefits do not get paid up front I had to wait 5 weeks when I got made redundant after being on furlough! I had got another job before I received anything! And as said they have a job they dont wish to loose ! Wrong. They should be telling you, and your first payment is now days not weeks if you choose. The money is taken of your benefits at a rate of £35 month. Any left owing is taken out of your final payment. This should have been explained to you on the first phone call to you after applying online. Most folk I know who've lost thier jobs have taken this offer up. As for a job, with no sick pay, how would they manage if they caught the virus? They might have to take months off. Or worse with being vulnerable. My health is worth more than a job with no sick pay. " I get paid sick pay, full amount. Id get paid for shielding, as i recieved the shielding letter but that has ended now. I would get paid if i was isolating due to having contact with someone with covid. I WOULDNT get paid if i decided to isolate simply to avoid wearing a mask. I cant work from home as im a nursery nurse. | |||

"I personally think, if people are so badly they can't wear a face mask,they definitely shouldn't be allowed out. Protect the vulnerable. I've been told, the only real reasons are PTSD and serious facial injuries,for not wearing a mask. No there are far more reasons than those 2 x Wish someone would tell me what they are! Central sensitisation Autism That's 2 more So they need to wear a visor! But no! I can't do that because, , Fill in a crazy reason of your own! Do you even know what central sensitisation is ? Going by that last comment I will take that as a no OK, Cs can cause chronic pain even just wearing clothing. Should they strip naked as well? If they truly are this bad, this condition puts you in hospital. If they can happily go out out socialising, shopping etc, yes they are fine to wear a visor Our daughter as cs nothing can touch her face even the wind hurts her " This is why visors have been suggested. So nothing would touch her face. | |||

Look at the ones with the softest foam on the bands too. I can't feel one being worn after a minute or two | |||

"My pal purposely stands next to people without masks and farts by them, followed by eye to eye contact. He says his his "right" to make people who don't wear masks to do this! " I had a moron do this to me when I was sat on a bench on with my housemate. We had our bandanas off and were eating. Idiot thought it was funny to sit next to me and fart and tap at his mask. He didn’t find it funny when my milk shake slipped out my hand all over him | |||
