Why are so many people not wearing face masks?

If you're making a short trip between two places that'll require a mask, it's surely better to leave it in situ than to go fiddling about with it.jimmymelrose said:
The number of people I see driving alone in their cars wearing one is another thing that's doing my head in.AFKABartram said:Any tips from glasses wearers on how not to get steamed glasses? Was walking through school playground this morning like Stevie Wonder.
there is no way I could drive wearing one
I just think everyone's gone mad.
I'm serious when I say that I hate going out now because all this mask wearing is freaking me out. I mean it. I'm bewildered by it. The lollipop man is just creepy now.3 -
Someone else gave me this tip but it doesn't work for me.eaststandmike said:
100%, for people who wear glasses this is good advice.aliwibble said:Get a mask that's got a wire insert so you can mould it as closely to your nose and face as possible, and then put your glasses over the top. That way you should get a decent seal and your breath won't escape up onto your glasses.0 -
Life art (dry) anti fog wipes. There are other anti fog products available.0

I found this quite good but when I bent down to pick something up off the floor my glasses fell off. If they broke I would be really buggered so tend to put up with the fog.jimmymelrose said:

While not the coolest look you could combine with a sports band that attaches to the ends of your ear loops and goes round the back of your head, glasses don’t fall off any more.Arsenetatters said:

Or a Larry Grayson neck chain if you preferred.
or these that one of my recent bosses thought were great. Looked a bit odd to me.2 -
Sadly no great surprise that face mask exemption cards sold by a charity for 55p appear on eBay with sellers charging up to £14.990

Under Armour masks are only £26 each

My brother bought me the 1986 Danish shirt as a present and I am going to print out the following on a face mask to go with it.

If the organisers added BLM to the march title the government wouldn't know what to do about it.eaststandmike said:

Such a small amount. There should be mountains more. I do not travel on a bus, train, or tube without somebody not wearing a face covering.clive said:2 -
has anyone noticed a pattern in non wearers? Overweight young mums wearing tracksuits and dropping the c bomb at their kids is one. Suit wearing males aged 25-30 is another.2

Apologies if the tone sounds argumentative, not intended. What is your experience? Travelling for work, I have noticed that pattens change in different areas. In north west Kent, it’s definitely young chavs that don’t carePrincessFiona said:

Decided to take a trip into Primark in Bromley yesterday, and 99% of people were wearing masks. However I can categorically say the few I saw that did not fall into that exact category!Todds_right_hook said:

In my experience, mostly young men, and young BAME in particular, eastern Europeans (mostly men) and some older menTodds_right_hook said:

Hitchin Town lastnight, 600 fans, no masks and no social distancing. How can they attend but 1000 of us can't?

Just been to Bromley (had no choice) and the amount of people who I can only assume breathe through gills is unbelievable! Masks around their frikkin necks or, if we're lucky, over their mouth (but never the nose). Makes me so bloody angry!5

Outside you’re not required to though.
What I can’t understand is the difference between the trials at league grounds where you had to wear one and the non requirement further down the pyramid.
Although if I was contemplating going to say, Cray Wanderers, and had to wear one, then I don’t think I’d bother going.

I went into Sainsbury's in Maidstone at the weekend, where I saw an employee unloading fruit and veg onto the shelves. He had a mask round his neck, so I told him that he should be wearing it over his mouth and nose. He didn't look happy, but pulled the mask up to cover his mouth and nose.5

Much better compliance on the buses but i've whittled it down to 3 regular abusers,
Fat chav bird with brood, having her 15 minutes of fame.
Black teen gangsta boy.
Chav real geezer, just dying for someone to say something.3 -
Had a trip to Fairlop (central line) on Train and underground and was surprised that about 90% of people were wearing them.
I thought there would be more rebels.
Didn't notice anyone enforcing the rules just folk being responsible overall. This was in the daytime and early evening so not sure when more alcohol is consumed if masks go back on.
Masks are anti social but necessary until proved other wise. The fact that WHO hesitated in stating that wearing masks should be mandatory at the beginning didn't help.

Its not about a 1000 fans not being able to attend, its about the above fans should not have been allowed in.shine166 said:Hitchin Town lastnight, 600 fans, no masks and no social distancing. How can they attend but 1000 of us can't?
I know it is going to be tough, I know business's will fold but until people wake up and take this virus seriously it will not go away.
Parents will be dragging their kids around the streets Saturday night knocking on doors for trick or treat.
Marches will continue to be allowed to take place up and down the country.
250,000 pantomine tickets have been sold ready for the build up to Christmas
Man Utd are "ready to go" with allowing 23,000 fans in.
Christmas is coming and familys will break the rules re visiting.
Restaurants are flouting the 1 meter and groups of 6 rule because the man power is not there to police it.
Etc, etc

Is there a rule about wearing face masks at non league games though?0
