So now that the World Health Organization are advising the use of masks/face coverings in public places, can we expect any greater take-up or promotion for their wearing in the delivery office indoor environment?

It's on the news that in hospitals face masks will be mandatory (wouldn't surprise me if that soon gets extended to doctors surgeries) and we already know that they'll be mandatory on public transport soon. I'm starting to wonder if they'll be made mandatory at all times outside of the home

Does sound like it will end up with 'face coverings' to be worn by everyone when not at home.
The WHO are also recommending that one metre social distancing is sufficient. I think Boris is trying to push for this but there is a lot of fear about the virus.
The views I express here are mine alone and do not represent the views of Royal Mail Group.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Only if you are in a classroom.

I don't think masks were ever compulsory in kindergartens.

The fact is the matter surgical masks and face coverings never stopped this virus nor hindered it's spread so we now are in an endemic phase of the virus which is less deadly than the flu virus.

All of this is completely untrue.
