I manage a large retail led pharmacy and we're not enforcing face masks. We've got loads of signage up but that's about as far as we're going. It's partly for disability discrimination reasons - just today I had a patient pop in for a script without a mask. He'd been refused entry to a competitor and so came to us. Turns out the guy is recovering from throat cancer and has a rough time breathing with a mask on which you obviously can't tell by looking at him and we don't want anyone who's already vulnerable to feel intimidated.
The main reason though that we're not enforcing masks is for violence and aggression reasons. I don't want any of my staff to be given aggro or be spat at over something that has become needlessly controversial. Our company's line on the matter is that it's the job of the police to enforce the law |
