Mandatory mask wearing is not working. Supermarkets can’t seem to enforce this, unfortunately. If like me, you see a young couple with two children not complying with this, there is nothing the supermarket can do about it. The couple seemed proud to be defying the rules and were singing and encouraging their children to shout and scream, drawing all the attention to them.
No, I did not approach them, as I am over 80 years of age and do not need any possible altercation with them, to say nothing of having them speaking to me maskless. I suggest you keep your local police station on speed dial and report them directly to the police. The rule is toothless and simply does not work. Perhaps fining will.
