Re: Wear the mask

Yeh, they have a surgical mask shortage in the UK, but improvised ones work, just not as well. They want to keep the quality product for the NHS, and you can make something yourself.

Fair enough, but the initial misleading message really makes it hard to get people to wear a hand made mask, even if its 70% effective compared to 85% of a proper mask, or 95% of an N95, it still largely works.

People swallowed the bollocks and now recite the drivel back to me.
