Remember this recommendation during the early pre-mask days of Covid-19?



I guess you could now wear your mask on your elbow for added safety.

Remember when they said that airline air-conditioning and filters provided enough protection against Covid-19? This excuse allowed politicians, businessmen and celebrities to continue travelling the world on "essential business" during the worst of the pandemic.

Point is the health directives are constantly changing, and much to the detriment of the average punter. I personally believe the people that make up these rules have no idea, but I am just a small fish in this all.

Wearing a mask for lengths at a time doesn't seem to bother me much, however, as a chronic hay fever sufferer from the past I still often get the sniffles in the morning and need to pull my mask down to blow my nose or sneeze into my handkerchief. Imagine sneezing in your mask... what would you do if you didn't have a spare?
