IMO masks found favor here because getting Thais to social distance is like trying to herd cats. Face masks are common in Asia, It is expected that you wear one when you have a cold but are still coming to work (because no work no pay). And you wearing one, signals to your co-workers to keep some distance. But making it mandatory to wear a face-mask because everybody is a potential germ-spreaders is way over the top. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post lee b Posted May 12, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 12, 2020 As soon as possible. To be honest I wouldn't mind wearing them if it wasn't so hot. They are just really annoying in this heat. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you examine that coffee shop photo you'll see that there are more than enough non-masked people in close proximity to each other (at the rear of the shop, for instance) for that place to be more of a concern than the 100%-masked BTS station queue! Where is that coffee shop? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably, but I am personally of the opinion that it provides myself an additional barrier of protection from someone's spittle in the air. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post colinneil Posted May 12, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 12, 2020 Never worn a mask, not been outside the gate for 10 weeks, except when we had the fire behind our home.

Caught COVID in January along with my family, wasn't that bad for me but the misses suffered. I'll stop wearing the mask as soon as I can get away with it.

Up to Boris. Masks have never been popular in western countries as they are associated with fear, panic, the unknown and even the supernatural. Public executioners for centuries wore masks and dentists still do. Then there were gas masks in the Second World War. Not to mention all those recent horror films – Halloween, Joker, Stephen King’s It – which underpin the sheer awfulness of disguising your face. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emdog Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 The often repeated statement "Cloth masks are useless against virus" is not true. " The results showed that cloth masks and other fabric materials tested in the study had 40–90% instantaneous penetration levels..." Not perfect, but I'll take 40-90% over 0% protection every day of the week. I'll stop wearing it when I get a shot of proven vaccine. https://academic.oup.com/annweh/article/54/7/789/202744 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JensenZ Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 It's a silly question. We can only stop wearing masks in public when we are told we don't need to wear masks by the governing authorities, AND when I can get into shops without them. It's not our choice to make. As it happens, I don't wear a mask at home, so the inconvenience might be around 30 minutes per day on average, at the most, as I don't go out everyday.
