Should face masks become permanent in Scotland post-coronavirus?

As restrictions begin to ease and some Scots start to think about life post-coronavirus, many are asking if face masks could become permanent.

National Clinical Director Jason Leitch previously said he thought wearing face masks could become a more permanent fixture of daily life.

Speaking last month, Professor Leitch said: “I think we might get better as a country about not going to work when you’ve got symptoms.

“You know that ‘we’re just going to muscle on through when we’ve got the cold and then we’re going to spread that around and then everybody’s going to be off for a week’. I think we might get better at some of those things.”
