Petition Action

Keep face masks mandatory in shops and on public transport.

Petition Details

While covid-19 cases are on the rise keep face mask mandatory in shops and on public transport. This will keep both workers and customers safe and avoid situations of conflict.

Additional Information

Covid-19 cases are rising with an estimate of 100.000-200,000 cases per day once restrictions are lifted. This will see a rise in hospitalisation, deaths and long covid-19 cases. Making face masks not compulsory will leave shop, transport workers and customers at risk.
