Clear plastic shields alone are not as good a barrier as the masks , so I guess that’s why the medical authorities are pushing masks. In hospitals they often wear both -protects eyes as well as respiratory system . If people started wearing plastic shields instead as a personal,choices, it wouldn’t contain spread enough .

At our local,oncology clinic I noticed that one of the admin staff cannot wear a mask and has a medical,exception BUT can wear plastic shield so does that instead . She’s also,not,having direct patient contact .
