I am 76 and wear a face mask over my mouth and nose, and not just over my chin.
I know there are people out there like Tim Bark who manages to find non-peer reviewed articles that support his non wearing ideas, but would you please stay away from me.
I accept that a mask is not 100 per cent protection but apart from my booster shot, it is all I have when I go out to protect me from the gung ho, let it rip selfish mob.
Looking at the near empty streets and shopping centres I feel I am not alone in my caution against this scary disease [which] is not going away as predicted.
We live in a society, where freedoms for the individual should be balanced by responsibilities to others.
Some people like to take the benefits of society and selfishly ignore the responsibilities.
Those who went off to war, freely or by conscription, knew that by cooperating and working together for the common good they preserved the freedoms of all.
Yes, I like the freedom of the open road, but I accept that road rules are there to protect me and others.
Let us have a Bill of Responsibilities and Rights for a just healthy society.
