But actually there is a bit of merit in considering his actual point here.
Most of the masks people wear here are paper or cloth. When you wear trousers and presumably underwear as well that's 2 or 3 layers over your arse of basically the same thing. Yet people can still smell your fart so that means it's passing through multiple layers of cloth.
Where it falls down, of course, is that what you're smelling in farts is a gas and what the mask is trapping is a virus, usually embedded in a droplet or aerosol, which is much larger.
Though if you go past a rather smelly fish counter in a supermarket your mask stinks...
Also, looks like 3rd doses for all over 18s (probably rolled out by age) and 2nd for 12-15 year olds, can't think under 12s will be too long either. What we have will no doubt help - and let's hope this does turn out to be mild.
