PPE remember Matt and co saying it's all just fine now. Turns out it's not faulty and out of date PPE is still being sent out and used.

at the start of this pandemic i was not on board . Now however I am, Sturgeon has her critics rightly so but she has got a handle on this. This is the right thing to do currently and glad she is now making it mandatory!

Why not make masks mandatory everywhere, Serious question ? What's the downside.

They are quite sweaty and uncomfortable and there is no benefit if you are outdoors and can easily socially distance.

What’s the point now that the supposed rate here is so low? I could have understood doing this 2 months ago.

A horse and a blot came to mind.
The rate is only down because it's been kept down. As things open up the rate will not stay low without extra measures.
Face coverings are all part of the jigsaw they don't stop the virus but they go a long way to dealing with asymptomatic transmission.
