COVID (and masks) will be with us for a while
Saw this and thought how often we've seen the variety of mask-wearing skill. Now I will see them and instead of getting cross and thinking "idiot" I will think of this dog and smile to myself ! ...

I feel for those who have COAD or other diseases that genuinely affect their ability to wear masks because they can feel a bit conspicuous in public. But those people are rare.
Wearing a mask if you have Asthma is a problem if you are having an attack, for example. Not wearing a mask because it fogs up your glasses? Nah.
The problem with those who actively refuse, or find flimsy exclusions, is that they seem more likely to take other risks as well. Disobedient. A tag that has dogged me all my life.
There is a difference between disobedient and stupid.
Mask wearing is meant to protect others from you. It's tedious and uncomfortable and makes it difficult to do my job. Too bad.
Don't buy packs of ten masks, bulk buy the 150s from cleaning suppliers. We'll be doing this for a while.
