Closed Supply and mandate the use of face masks and gloves

Closed on

We must do whatever it takes to save lives. The Government should make face masks and gloves available to all the public and make that compulsory for people to wear in public, to help stop the spread of coronavirus.

As we all know the virus is very dangerous and it is not always apparent when someone is infectious. We have seen health services in other parts of the world struggle to cope with the number of patients with coronavirus, and it is an anxious time for much of the public, so the Government must do whatever it takes to reduce the risks of transmission.
