Make masks/face shields mandatory for everyone

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

Due to the virus spreading quickly we should make it law to make masks/face visors mandatory. I believe this will help towards the stop of the virus to some extent. Too many people walking around like nothings wrong and saying they are exempt. This needs to stop!
To stop the spread of the virus and get people to listen
