Not Really Being A Role Model For Her Subjects.

[Barsel]

The Queen, Prince William and her entourage went on a visit today, nobody was wearing a face mask.Even the people she went to visit were not wearing one. Is it really one rule for them and another rule for us?

[ummmm]

They were tested.

[jno]

they were observing social distancing, though. I think if you can stay 2 metres from everyone a mask isn't going to make any difference.

Besides, if she breathed on you it probably cure your illnesses.

So is it either or. A) wear a mask? B) social distance?

[jno]

well, I do both, but I don't have the royal healing touch to fall back on. But if they've been tested as well, that sounds pretty safe all round.

stop whinning, it's bowlocks anyway.

[iluvmargie]

Royal Covid and Pleb Covid ?

[ToraToraTora]

the whold mask think is bowlocks, it's only effect is on the mind. The virus is 1bout 100 times small than the holes anyway. Ok so the droplets get stopped so the virus is in the mask when the water soaks into the mask, it get wet you may have noticed. next Exhalation expels the virus that was on the cloth. Basically it's moved the infection to one breath away from the last. Pointless, it's designed to make people think there is some value.

TTT as has been said a trillion times, masks are not intended to protect the wearer, they are there to protect others from someone who might have the virus.

[iluvmargie]

^ I agree.

[Barsel]

TTT it's not about how much protection the masks give, it's about us being fined for not wearing one and yet it's ok for some.

[Mamyalynne]

Special measure were undertaken to make sure all was safe, should we storm the Palace Gates?

Your call.

[bednobs]

// the whold mask think is bowlocks,//

shown fifty years ago at least - masks dont work
and you do with cough plates -

cough cough cough with a mask = cough cough cough without a mask
in term of bacterial colony count
( a weary AB lamented " as PP told us endlessly in March" )

[Mamyalynne]

These numbers are alarming.

"TTT it's not about how much protection the masks give, it's about us being fined for not wearing one and yet it's ok for some. " - get that 4 by 2 off your shoulder, did she go into a shop??

[iluvmargie]

I meant I agree with TTT. When did the rule come in that masks have be worn at all times?? She was perfectly legit in my opinion and, as as been said, everyone was tested. I can't see a problem at all!
