      I thought he was trying to reinstate a pre-Covid ban and it has exceptions for wearing masks for medical reasons?

        It’s not just about the disabled person, but anyone who lives with them needs to be wearing masks in public places because if they get sick it’s pretty hard to avoid spreading at home.

        Medical exemptions have never been good enough.

          I mean that whole idea is stupid. I’m still wearing masks on occasion. I don’t want to spread my mild flu to all the coworkers in the office, crowded train etc… I think we should do it like in some asian countries, where you’d just stop the flu spreading to some degree. Since you can’t stay at home all the time and that’s kind of contagious…

          And the only benefit is that some dystopian total video surveillance keeps working…
