Retain the compulsory wearing of masks.
The government should review its decision to remove the compulsory wearing of face coverings as a means to reduce the spread of Covid.
Wearing a mask protects others and not the mask wearer.
Leaving the choice up to individuals creates anarchy.
The wearing of a face covering protects others...NOT the wearer. To make the wearing of a mask an individual choice removes the ability to protect oneself from others.
How do I CHOOSE to protect myself?
