Fact #5 : Most Civilians Won’t Wear Face Masks For Long Hours
Unless you are a healthcare worker, or work in very dusty workplaces, you are unlikely to wear face masks for long hours.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, face masks are used only when we go out in public. There is no need to wear face masks at home, or in your personal vehicle.

Wrong, many people are now expected to wear masks for whole shifts.

Fact #6 : You May Get A Headache / Feel Uncomfortable
Now, the carbon dioxide will build up with extended use, but most people will tolerate and not notice it.
Those who are sensitive to the increase in carbon dioxide may get a headache or feel uncomfortable. Certainly, they will be motivated to remove the face mask long before they develop hypoxia and lose consciousness.

So are they saying, on your recommended website, that you can develop hypoxia???

Fact #7 : You Should NOT Touch Your Face Mask!
Now, it is BAD ADVICE to lift your face mask every 10 minutes to “get some fresh air”.
Once you put on your face mask and go out in public, you should consider it (and your hands) contaminated. At no point should you touch the front of your face mask, much less lift it up over and over again.
If you follow that bad advice to keep lifting your face mask every 10 minutes, you could contaminate yourself in the process.

Someone should give Chris Chester this advice.

Good advice again but the reality is this does not happen. In my experience everyone is constantly putting on and removing their masks. I live opposite a bus stop and a shop and believe me, they are on, they are off, and many fiddle with them constantly and as for schoolkids, not the most considerate age group are they?

Dump the masks, for good.
