I went out over the last few days & used public transport (1st time since March), & saw large shops outside my normal small neighborhood.
I must report its *not looking good...*
There's no doubt in my mind cases will rocket.
People *need* an infomercial on masks!

What I saw:
1/4

2/4
- No distancing in bus queues
- No masks, gloves, sanitiser
- Masks (disposable, used, grubby) retieved grudgingly from pockets as bus arrived & hung round ears.
- Masks mostly down round chins as bus pulled out
- *Everyone* touched *every pole & seat* as they went in & out

3/4
- Everyone clustered around lights waiting to cross to shops. No Masks.
- Same grubby, well-used, disposable masks hooked loosely on ears to enter food stores
- Sanitiser ignored
- People using contaminated hands to touch *every* tin, packet & item, then put it back...

4/4
Until people understand why this is wrong, they'll continue doing it.
Behaviour becomes slacker with time - but when people dont have any idea what's right, they aren't starting from a good place... "common sense" just doesnt cut it.
