Text of Petition:
There is so much evidence
to suggest face masks do not stop the spread of viruses including
COVID-19/coronavirus.
Masks promote the touching
of faces repeatedly which will spread any pathogens that are on the mask. On
the topic of masks, Dr Jenny Harries is quoted in saying "Because of human
behavioural issues, people can adversely put themselves at more risk than
less."
Many doctors & health
professionals are speaking out to say face masks aid the spread of viruses.
