Hi, Chris. I heard you say this morning on BBC Breakfast that 90% of Covid 19 transmission takes place within the home. My partner and I both thought: 'So, what started the recent emphasis on wearing masks? Doesn't this simply dilute the message that good hand cleanliness is crucially important?' Could the whole mask wearing practice actually be counter productive if it causes people to forget from hand sanitising? Masks seem to us to be more about people FEELING safe rather than actually having any meaningful impact in reducing cross infection. What ar your views on this?
