This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to ask the UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action. We're not exactly sure in what cases you want face masks to be mandatory. You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

If you want the Government to extend requirements for self-isolation to people with symptoms of any virus, you may wish to sign this petition: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/311623
