Mandatory face Masks/shields for everyone (no exception) outside all times

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

To help prevent the spread of COVID-19, every person regardless of age or health condition should wear a face covering/mask or face shield. There is growing medical evidence to support this intervention and as current measures have been ineffective this now needs to be attempted.
This needs to be considered and debated to seriously help prevent the spread of COVID-19 as current measures are unreliable and the exception clause is medically unfounded and flouted by many
