The vast majority I've seen - in the pub or the East Stand 'indoors' or in seats - aren't bothering to. The matchday stewards did for the first time but they seemed less bothered last week. I've been wearing mine most of the time there but it's now a feeling of being a real minority.
Been to two home games Crewe was in the West Stand and very few had masks on.
West Ham was in the East Stand and only saw 3 or 4 people in a mask.
Guilty as I went with the intention of wearing mine in the bar under the stand but taking off in my seat. But in reality didn't do it.

Like BB wear mine in many other places.

First time to ER tomo (this season), ANS and tbh I've been very complacent with it all recently. Only time I've been wearing a mask is when I've been asked to. A good reminder though so I shall be wearing it tomo

Took her indoors down to the local Pharmacy and we both had our 'booster' jab. Got my flu jab last week. Hopefully, get through the winter OK.

A Facebook post from an old pal of mine.
Just a comment from someone with no vested interests (except a personal wanderlust) now that travel is starting to open up again.
As many of you will know I worked as a pharmacist for 40-odd years, and for the last 5 I used to give flu jabs. As such I got to know a bit about virology, and a lot of what is reported in the media is exaggerated or total rubbish.
So, don't be afraid of the Covid jab (unless you have valid reasons), all the conspiracy theories are nonsense. You don't have to trust me, but a lot of people did over forty years and were happy doing so.
My wife and I are eagerly awaiting our booster jabs before we start travelling again next year, the important thing is you might still get Covid but you almost certainly won't die.
What is not mentioned in the media much is that vaccination is the way out of these problems because it helps to curb the spread.
Anyone not being jabbed (without good reason) is actually being selfish.

One of our pilots was back home for the weekend and went into London on Saturday night. He was there as well in July and couldn't believe the difference now. Tubes were crammed, bars packed and hardly a sign of masks or sanitiser being used.

I think that is the general trend, in Southampton on Saturday it was very much the same.

Yep very much what I'm now seeing, went to the Designer Outlet shopping centre which is indoors and hardly anyone in masks (10% at most).
Fortunately we went early while it wasn't too busy but wasn't the case when we left.
