FACE MASKS FOREVER?

The Sun —

BRITS could be wearing face masks forever as Covid-19 will “always be with us”, England’s deputy chief medical officer told The Sun today.

Professor Jonathan Van-Tam said the pandemic has changed how Brits approach hygiene and that some habits that we have adopted still stay with us.

The top medic add that lockdown will probably be with us until “mid to late Spring”.

The professor also cautioned that the virus will be with us “for the foreseeable future”.

Prof Van-Tam said during an exclusive interview with The Sun: “The pandemic has changed a lot of things. It has changed the way you and I approach hand hygiene.

“We all carry hand sanitiser around now, we all expect in most of the places we go into that hand sanitiser is provided at the door.

“I think there are going to be people who make a personal decision to say, you know what, when I’m in a crowded place in the winter I’m going to put a face covering on. When I’m on a tube I am going to put a face covering on.”
