Closed petition Require public-facing workers to use clear or windowed face coverings

Closed on

Push for the use of windowed or clear face masks on public transport, in pubs, restaurants, hospitals, pharmacies, etc so that deaf people can lip read and are not excluded

Face masks have been made mandatory in a lot of places, pushing deaf and hard of hearing people out of these environments.

I am starting a petition as this issue is overlooked when in this day and age there is no excuse for a lack of accessibility.
