I thank Dr. De Gascun and Professor Nolan for all their work over the past few weeks and wish them the best of luck for the weeks ahead. Obviously, this has not been beaten yet. I would like to get the views of the witnesses on face masks. I have had many contacts over the past couple of days, in particular yesterday, from people who are very concerned about the messaging on face masks. To sum up, people feel it is rather woolly. What are their thoughts on the utility of wearing face masks and the directives from the Government on them? Do they have any thoughts or recommendations in that regard?
