    No as it seems you can't buy them, apparently they were hoping for December availability but that seems to have slipped

    If you weren't such a clueless tulipe you would know about the new virus killing masks invented and being supplied by Pharm2Farm a wholly owned subsidiary of "Remote Monitored Systems Plc." LON:RMS

    I hope your ignorance doesn't cause your untimely death dying in a pool of your own snot but YMMV.

    Hence the development in enlightened EU that will result in proper face coverings being used, not whatever is available (which wasn't good enough before new more infectious variants)

    I see a lot of people constantly fiddling with masks, which must be a bit counterproductive if they haven't washed their hands.

    Has there been any research done as to which is better, mask or visor?

    70% alcohol spray is far more convenient for that than the hand gel stuff. I keep a small bottle of it in my handbag as it's more socially acceptable to have that than lots of gin miniatures.
