I think this part would incorportate "or on deck" if so. So Id say yes, even on deck

"to wear a mask while in the port and on board in public areas (other than when seated to eat or drink)".
 
I'm wondering if you can escape masks on the open deck? We're on DFDS this week, wondering if they ll do the same. Would be a real pain on the longer crossings
You don't have wear it when sat down..Still wear mine indoors in public places.Its no hardship but Covid would be.BUSBY.
 
We are currently up in Skye. We have noticed a lot more locals / staff in shops etc. still wearing masks compared to mainland. The campsite where we are has a small reception but you can’t go in.
 
My Brother is a health care worker and he says a lot of his patients are still prisoners in their own homes as catching Covid will kill them as they cannot have the vaccinations for various reasons. I had a delivery from Sainsbury's today and the driver was wearing a mask so I put one on too.

We are in London for the weekend, went to see Adele in Hyde park yesterday and spent all day in the V and A. We've hardly seen anyone wearing masks (except chinese).

Better to wear the mask 😷 my hubby got covid 13th June had to come back from our trip and cancel our bookings, he was not at all well but luckily is recovering now, honestly wear the masks it's not worth the risk!
 
Same here..i have had to wear one when working with a vulnerable young person but not worn them elsewhere. I am probably going to wear one in shops etc again.
We’ve been a bit lax about mask wearing but think I will start wearing mine again In shops etc.

I had Covid 3 weeks ago, felt rough for a few days but didn't go out until I tested negative. Although where I live going out with my dog usually means never seeing anyone anyway.

That could be why this more transmissible variant is spreading so fast. Having survived the lockdown years without (to my knowledge) catching Covid or knowing anyone who did, both the co-pilot and I have now had it (no fun at all and still lingering on nearly a month later) and we know people who have had it more than once in the last few months. Mask wearing would certainly slow it down but but I can't see that becoming mandatory again any time soon . . .

You do know masks are of minute value in protecting the wearer? They have only ever been aimed at helping prevent a carrier spread the illness.
I'm referring to the basic surgical type of course.

Not just masks,,hardly anyone washes their hands now when entering shops,,are they mad??Without Covid I would still wash my hands before and after shopping..BUSBY.

handwashing is very very important, this small thing also stops other spreads = less pressure on doctors and wards

I agree - home made cloth masks and pound shop tissue ones not much good either way. Masks of FPP2 standard or higher, properly fitted, should greatly reduce risk in both directions.
