And what we're considering here is not just for COVID, for all respiratory infections, should we have a duty not to infect other people?

because I am guilty of this, and I'm sure everybody else is, of going into work, giving myself a few paracetamol, and carrying on, despite I'm spluttering a bit and coughing a bit.

And actually, do we all have a duty at that point to recognise we should be staying out of the public?

And this is the people in Japan and in the Far East.

When they are infected, they have a duty.

They feel they have a duty because they're much more paranoid about it to prevent infection.

So wearing a mask means they're not giving anything out to other people.

My point about the evidence is I think what's happening here is it's uncertain.

And by presenting it, the media is presenting it to people.

And what you're seeing when you're outside is people making their own decisions about what they should do.

If you're an arrest person, you might consider, I wear a mask.

The flip side is if you're not an arrest person, when you see you go to the shops, they're not wearing masks.

But my concern is when I go to the shops is there's no station for me to wash my hands.

When I go to the petrol station, where can I wash my hands?

All of that's missing in the architecture.

So if you think you're just going to stick a mask on me and that's going to give me the solution, the evidence is not telling us that.

But I do think we could have an overarching strategy.

And my final point, sorry for going on this, is we should be testing some of these things.

Well, that's very interesting.

There's been a lot this week, hasn't there?
