Would you wear one?
Face masks are already compulsory here in Spain and there are quite a few designs hitting the shops already, it got me wondering if it could be something Ron Hill could produce for Fetch. I think they would go well with the AVOID shirts š

Thatās a good idea. I have a Fetch buff that I use for a face covering but if there was a proper mask available I would get one.

I'm quite depressed about it all. I understand the medical intention behind it, but how am I supposed to lip read someone in a shop or on a bus. I just hope some hard nut doesn't take exception to me not wearing a face mask. I feel even more alienated from society now.

I thought I saw that some company is producing masks that have see through mouths so you can lip read.
Iām finding it really hard at work when Patients Come to the door with their masks on -

That's a real tough one 12bar for lip reading, but why does that preclude you wearing one or is it that you expect to be lip-read too? Genuine question, just trying to understand.

I find it highly unlikely that see-through face masks will be worn by the entire population just so deaf people like me can lip read what is being said.
I am exempt from wearing a face mask because I am classed as disabled, i.e. profound/severe hearing loss. I have to resort to lip reading or sign language as even with my hearing aids in, I struggle to hear everyday sounds & speech. The only way I can really understand what people are saying is by āreadingā their lips.
