Whether you’re able to wear face masks or not is up to you to determine, but one expert scientist claims that they’re going stay around forever.
There have also been calls for social distancing to stay forever along with face mask wearing.
Many people are unable to wear face masks due to being exempt, but for those who do wear them – everyone thought that they would see the end of face covering when the pandemic is over, presumably in the next couple of months.
Professor Susan Michie told Channel 5: “That is the behaviour of social distancing, of when you’re indoors, making sure there’s good ventilation or if it’s not, wearing face masks, of hands and surface hygiene.
“We will need to keep this going in the long term and that will be good not only for Covid, but also to reduce other diseases”.
Asked how long she thinks these restrictions will last, Miche said: “I think forever, to some extent.”
What do you think? Should face masks remain forever?
