Michael W Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 The thing is, social distancing was brought in in response to the pandemic initially, with masks added later (July 2020?). These measures were introduced at a time we had no vaccines let alone widespread vaccine coverage. More than half the UK population has been fully vaccinated now. This is not March 2020, July 2020 or indeed December 2020. We have an entirely different landscape now - we have better treatments and, more importantly, a highly effective vaccine that is preventing infections and reducing hospitalisations and deaths. Yes cases are high across the UK, but one look at the age breakdown and the impact of vaccination is apparent - they work. They have done what masks and social distancing did not; they have greatly reduced not only cases, but also hospitalisations and deaths. Masks and distancing, at best, will have impacted case numbers, but cases were very high amongst the groups now seeing very low rates of cases. The conversation around masks almost always seems to revert to "your mask protects others" with the implicit allegation that not wearing one is selfish. This overlooks that vaccines also protect others; they protect the vaccinated person, which in turn protects the public by reducing the chances of someone catching covid, but also then the risk of passing it on. If people want to keep wearing masks then they are free to do so. If they are worried about a loss of protection, wearing a proper mask and not a surgical/fabric one will give the wearer protection. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love (hate) to see them try and spin that line. Fan behaviour outwith a stadium should have no bearing on the number of fans allowed inside a stadium. If the "special dispensation" that was agreed for the Euro matches at Hampden to reduce social distancing is not replicated across domestic football, questions need to be asked.
