Can you send me a link to how I can get funding for not wearing a face mask? Wait....you weren't lYiNg were you?

Funded 10k for going out in public without a mask? That's country I need to get to asap.

Oh of course because public transport and publicly accessible shops don't technically count as going out in public. Thanks for clearing that up.

So still in public then?

Face masks in a pandemic: From 'useless' to 'indispensable' | The Japan Times Lists a few.

True - hardly comforting when they can't even appropriately distribute enough PPE to the NHS let alone an entire country.

Opinion | How Long Will a Vaccine Really Take? It's a game of opinions Dom. Until there's a breakthrough it's all speculation.

That's why IMO it should be enforced. Germany have bought in punishments for not wearing face masks (apparently up to €10,000) if you are caught without a mask on in public. Our government need to find a backbone and implement similar laws / punishments with regards to wearing face masks...

You joke....but I can almost guarantee at least one person will resort to this

That's what I'm saying though. If everyone wears them but social distancing isn't adhered to then the chances of coming into contact with the virus aren't greatly reduced. They'll certainly help but in many ways they're just delaying the inevitable of a second outbreak - which is what has...

That's their primary use and where they're considered most effective, by containing the virus if you have it. Which is why wearing them should be mandatory when going outside as there are people as you say are asymptomatic or are actually stupid enough to go out in public before the incubation...

But I could counter your counter argument and claim they could give people a false sense of security and invite people to think that it's okay to gather in groups when it almost certainly isn't until a vaccine is found and distributed accordingly. Masks are almost certainly necessary but they...

They're certainly not pointless otherwise by that logic the NHS workers might as well just care for patients in the nude and save everyone the trouble. But they're only as useful as the person who wears them. Social distancing still needs to be actioned whilst wearing masks otherwise their...

Your argument isn't relevant - like I said use your common sense. Wearing masks won't guarantee you not catching the virus, they simply minimise the risk of transmission. If social distancing is not actioned where possible in conjunction with wearing them then you can see why some have claimed...

There's been a huge debate on this so I think common sense is required. Whilst masks can help prevent the spread you can still very easily pick up the virus despite wearing one. E.g. If someone coughs in your proximity or when taking it off after going outside. The risk is lessened but it still...

In that respect yes it's enactable. But going back to the initial point about how viable it is for clubs/chairmen to sue others for not completing this season, it's inevitably going to be difficult - regardless of whether a catch-all clause is/was in place or not. With respect CD I've spoken to...

Ligue 1: Paris St-Germain awarded French title as season finished early PSG awarded Ligue 1 title Lorient crowned Ligue 2 champions

Matches got cancelled because all the men were at war or dead as a result of the war? There's no solution that could've been dreamt up to solve that and it still can't. You can't enact a catch all scenario because every scenario might be different. The amount of loopholes would be endless.

How can you claim from a legal POV the EFL should've predicted that a pandemic would've halted the season? That's literally like saying the EFL would be liable if the season was halted due to an alien invasion because there were no policies in place to mitigate the fallout from such a scenario.

Exactly. I've recently briefly spoken to lawyers in my network just to get their two cents on the matter as legalities are far from my strong suit and they've said with confidence it would be difficult for clubs/chairmen to build any sort of case whatsoever against the EFL or other clubs due to...
