‘Masks’ doesn’t mean masks.
I work in the UK and the Middle East. They both have ‘masks’. They are a world apart in whether people actually wear them or not. Watching people fumble in pockets to pop a mask on just before entering a shop, usually under the nose in the U.K. before moving it aside to speak to the cashier or even to sneeze vs watching people in the Middle East wearing masks outside, on their own, all the time, even when no one is watching.
