I’m baffled and frustrated that masks haven’t been mandated- at least in the short term.
The take up of masks would be high by the public in my opinion.
But when it’s optional all the fence sitters will think that the situation “can’t be too bad”, and carry on in their normal non-socially distanced ways.
I fear Gladys has missed a golden opportunity here. Could hurt her and the state badly, COVID doesn’t give you a second chance if you get it wrong.
