Face masks for every occasion in the pandemic world

In the pandemic world the “new normal” means that face masks are part of daily life all over the world. Everyone in England must wear them while using public transport including trains, the Tube, on the bus, ferries or planes and in hospitals or face a £100 fine. And more recently face masks have to be worn in banks, building societies, shops, and takeaway restaurants.

The only exceptions are those under the age of 11 and people with disabilities or breathing problems, or anyone travelling with someone who lip-reads – though we found a mask for that occasion too.

TIP: if you have a beard or a moustache, take note of the advice offered by the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Facial hair may interfere with the effectiveness of your face masks. Make sure that the hair fits inside of the mask or better still (if you are so inclined) go clean-shaven.
