Make wearing masks in school and college classrooms mandatory
For students and staff within all colleges and secondary schools in particular, in the UK, the wearing of face masks, needs to be made mandatory within classrooms, not just in communal areas within schools and colleges. To avoid more serious illness, from the covid-19 virus.
Why is this important?
Science has proven that the wearing of masks, does lower the risk of viral
load, from the covid-19 virus.
Also this would help avoid any more local or national lockdowns, help prevent more serious illness, relieve any pressure on the NHS and would be a common sense solution. Even if a small minority are exempt from wearing masks, the majority wearing them in classrooms, would increase levels of safety at work and study, for everyone, but especially those at higher risk, from serious illness, if they contracted the virus and those caring for the elderly and more vulnerable, also at higher risk of serious illness, from contracting the covid-19 virus.
