SG to make the same decision’s in the next few months is my prediction, 

I don't think we'll lose indoor mandatory face masks while Sturgeon is FM.

If the government want to make it guidance that wearing a mask is advisable indoors then fine. 

But we know fine we’ll that the public who are supposedly used to it and feel safer with masks will largely ditch them as soon it’s not law. 

Guidance is not fine because it:

• enables a minority of mask fetishists to shriek about unsafe environments, which thereby

• places the onus on not just businesses but also large public-facing organisations to maintain a de facto mask mandate for their employees/representatives. 

You might not have to wear a mask in the pub, but the servers might. And there will be no escaping masks in many large workplaces and public settings so long as there is 'guidance' issued by a government that HR and mewling iSAGE hangers-on can point to. 

The return to normality involves the government leaving the decision to individual judgment and removing all further guidance.

Expert predicts end of face coverings in schools

 

Quote

Mask wearing in Scotland's schools could end as early as next month, according to a leading infections expert.

 

Dr Christine Tait-Burkard said she believed the rules on face coverings for the general public may be lifted "relatively soon thereafter".

 

Deputy First Minister John Swinney would not be drawn on a timetable.

 

But he told BBC Scotland's The Nine that he hoped the rules would not still be in place when exams start in May.

Howling at this pearler from Clownshoes:

Is Clownshoes @superbigal?

On a serious note, his refusal to budge from his "mid to late January peak" prediction is ludicrous now.

What data is he looking at?

Some of the reaction in the replies :lol: 

 

I actually find it a bit sad that the language used by the government and the Scottish government have made so many people absolutely shit scared.

Crazy that they think a manky bit of cloth that has probably been worn for about 10 days is doing anything to stop them getting covid

Potential for self isolation to end in England on 24th March

I might be being cynical here, but isn't that one day after the second anniversary of the first lockdown?

Enough of the symbolism, and bin it now if that's the case. Why wait?

There's some severely damaged people out there, which is no surprise really. These people have probably spent the last 2 years watching Sky News, reading tabloids etc. and believe that death is imminent for anyone who catches Covid.

As the rest of us get back to normal, these people will slowly go back to their pre-Covid pass times. Usually things like complaining to public transport operators and supermarket workers.

Why do people seek out posts on Twitter that annoy them? It's like people who moan about the contents of this thread yet post in it 20 times a day.

Life's too short baby!

People working themselves into a shoot on a daily basis.

A few people have now said this (or similar)

Is it hyperbole or do you genuinely believe it? 

Do I genuinely believe the ultra negative, ultra cautious, head of the biggest Nanny State in world history won't allow individuals to make their own choice to wear masks in indoor public settings?
