Out of date? The second link is about incidents from last week!
Many unreasonably unmasked train riders are apparently not smart enough to plead disability, which is hardly surprising if they are too dim to cover their face to reduce the risk and help get R down.

And it's still inspectors, or as shown on the news, the police handing out the "reminders". Despite it being a condition of travel(for TFL) since masks were made compulsory on public transport last year.
Bus drivers cannot stop them boarding, nor can guards where the train service still have them. The threat of violence against them is too great.
The question is, why have they taken so long to start doing this, given that it is a condition of travel, for TFL at least.

There is no such thing as a "false exempt card". No exemption card carries any legal weight.

children under the age of 11 (The UK Health and Security Agency does not recommend face coverings for children under the age of 3 for health and safety reasons)
people who cannot put on, wear or remove a face covering because of a physical or mental illness or impairment, or disability
people for whom putting on, wearing or removing a face covering will cause severe distress
people speaking to or providing assistance to someone who relies on lip reading, clear sound or facial expressions to communicate
to avoid the risk of harm or injury to yourself or others
police officers and other emergency workers, given that this may interfere with their ability to serve the public.
You don’t even have to show the card legally, it’s just for your own piece of mind.

I've the following three on a cheap handset.
And a fourth, "issued" by First. More was made of asking why last year than this, by the drivers/guards. No questions this time round.
There's the odd time that wearing one will be impossible for me. Inside of the mouth swollen, damage to the jaw or head.

So what do you think, @Bike Tyson ? What is the top point you are trying to share? Just so as we're clear. Or are you just sharing for info? Add value.
