Oh and I made a diners mask out of a shirt sleeve.
It's crazy sh** like this has me :shakehead more & more as time passes. In tight indoor spaces where it's hard to keep a distance from others and/or ventilation is poor, like in shops, public transport, hospitals or elderly homes, where regulations require it for the time being - okay.
But when going to a restaurant with friends / family,
for fun, and then wear a face mask? Perhaps even
while eating?!? NOT HAPPENING. Not for me anyway. :thumbsdow I'd rather be beaten to death with a stick. If that means that restaurants, cinemas etc are out for a while then so be it.
Right up there with people disinfecting their groceries. Or authorities banning people from hitting the beach (= outdoors) even when they keep their distance from others. For restaurants: limit # of visitors as necessary to let people keep their distance, assign seats / put markings on the floor etc, register who comes in there & at what time (for example by using reservations only) so that when a COVID-19 case pops up you know who to ask to self-quarantine and/or get themselves tested, and leave it at that. Not workable? Then just close up shop & be done with it (or don't, if the economic argument weighs heavier
).
