Originally posted by Lombardinho I've tried but failed, Sportyteacher, to make your "very real risks" bit go bold. I'm not very good at using computers.

I try not to judge others but when I see people wearing one in the open air when there's nobody within a hundred metres of themselves, I sometimes can't help judging. Funnily enough, while on public transport and seeing someone else not wearing one, I've found myself judging them too! My mind has, no doubt, been interfered with! However, when I see a small child wearing one, my heart literally sinks. There's been no safety checks on prolonged use of these masks. Without a proper risk assessment, how do we know mask wearing won't increase your chances of testing positive? So, as a father of a 3 year old, I'll go to prison before I let someone put a mask on her. Her mother, more than likely will be okay with it. Yes, I'm not happy with the way the world has changed these past few months, in case you were wondering! If that makes me "evil", Rudi Hedman, so be it. I'm hoping enough parents will apply logic and say enough is enough when the authorities try to put a barrier to their child's ability to breath oxygen on their face. If they don't I really fear for the future. Before I go here are the figures... Even if you're 100 years old, the chances of you dying after testing positive for covid 19 are 0.26% And if you're under 70 years old that figure drops to 0.04% I believe it has been shown that wearing a mask has no impact at all on the level of exygen that is consumed. It's purpose is to stop any large droplets expelled by coughs or sneezes reaching others. I have not heard anyone yet suggest that children ought to be wearing them, or that anyone should be when outside. For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally.

People have got very caught up on the death figures but there's clearly a lot more to it than that. Only further research over time will provide the answers. By then many or even most of us will have contracted covid-19 and so we should be very eager to learn of the findings. Do what you feel is best for you and yours at every step is what I say.
