| Comment | Yes, but through not following the rules people are dying...
Actually enforcing the law on a large scale may have an effect. Though so far how many people have actually been charged for breaching restrictions?
I don't see it getting to the point that anyone's going to bother forcing people to follow the rules. Much to society's detriment. In my view if you can't leave a mask due to health reasons then you're the type of person who shouldn't be out in public right now anyway. So anyone not wearing one either has a mental health reason, or is a bullshitter. At least based on all the studies which have came out showing that masks have next to no effect on your physical wellbeing.
I'm of a mind at this stage that the general public's shown themselves to be arses. When given the opportunity to follow even the most basic least impactiful restrictions so many just don't care. It'd take on the spot fines at this point for any change. As even with the UK having one of the worst death rates in the world people want to carry on as normal and expect things to get better through no effort of their own. |
