Yes, but people aren't too good at doing thinking. Hence all the maskless fools in pubs. If only they were affected its fine, but it affects others they come into contact with.

That’s their choice and also the people who choose to risk going to the pub, you know like people who choose to smoke, drink excessively.

Well, there is one big issue with wearing masks in pubs, so I wouldn't refer to people not wearing masks in pubs (where it is neither guidance nor a legal requirement) as "maskless fools".


It's not exactly logical to suggest that wearing a mask whilst you are moving between the door and your table, and to go to the toilet, but not at any other time is really offering any protection to anyone at all, hence masks might as well just stay off and anyone who has issues with being in contact with people who aren't wearing a bit of rag over their mouth at all times simply don't go to the pub.



It isn't possible to eat and drink whilst wearing a mask and since you're not really supposed to be taking masks on and off (without washing your hands) repeatedly, then it makes sense to keep them off in these places.


In any case, they probably only represent a small reduction in transmission, especially given the number of people who still don't know how to wear a mask properly after all this time.

Smoking and drinking excessively, mostly only harms themselves. When they go round to see dear old gran on Xmas day, after an Xmas eve session, they might not be bringing a very nice gift for her...

Same goes for the idiot anti vaxers who get their scientific info from facetwatter, and try and force others to 'think' like they do. If it was all part of natural selection then fair enough, but it affects others, overwhelms the NHS and stops other getting vital treatment.

That's a quick turnaround from "maskless fools" in pubs which Mick was replying to.

More of your turd nonsense.

The majority of people who go to the pub do not drink 'excessively.
A lot less people smoke now (and none in the pub, its been illegal for about 15 years).

We’re back to killing Granny are we?

Again this notion that there are hordes of anti-vaxxers roaming the streets “forcing” to people to think differently only exists in your , rather, warped mind.

I’m going out tonight to see Graeme Park in Halifax, I’ll be drinking heavily, not wearing a mask and having a bloody good time.

I find it crazy the numbers that vape but have never smoked. It makes no sense to me, But that is another story

Never heard of Graeme Park, a mate ?!

I'd stick to Halifax FC, you'd be far safer/more socially distanced at The Shay ;)

We require you to wear a face covering to all our indoor events (exemptions apply). In some circumstances, this is now a legal requirement. Wearing a face covering helps protect others from COVID and the new Omicron variant.

Well I won't be harming anybody, I have four Covid tests a week because I am on the front line - I haven't caught Covid since August last year, despite being around many colleagues and working alongside them, who have tested positive with Covid.

I happen to believe that Natural Immunity does actually work, the body does have an immune system, some people do have a very strong immune system, I injured myself on a rusty piece of metal once and went to hospital, who later suggested I have a Tetanus jab, I had it and days later my arm swelled up, so I went to see my GP, who proclaimed that the Tetanus jab wasn't necessary, my arm was swelling because my body was rejecting the Tetanus vaccine.

The NHS is not being overwhelmed.

There has not been a surge in deaths.

Lockdowns and pathetic circuit breakers do not work.

Wearing the mask only helps to stop you passing on Covid, not the other way round and if you have Covid and feel unwell, you should not be going out anyway, by becoming a super spreader and being the one who is actually harming others. It's quite strange isn't it that even though masks mandate has been implemented, positive cases are still rising considerably.

We have since discovered that SAGE are only modelling on worse case scenarios only, not actual data and then the government appears to be trying to justify more restrictions based on these worse case scenarios, we cannot keep shutting down everything just because of what "might" happen, and not basing their decisions on actually what is happening on the ground.

You see this is where YOU, are the one who is totally misinformed and reading utter shite on the internet and following the fear project & propaganda spouted by the likes of the Media.

Thanks, but I’ve been triple jabbed so I don’t care if I catch it.
