I've just returned from the supermarket. Mask wearing was well below 10%.
Also no queuing to get in (no staff on the door) and no trolleys being moved from the carpark to the front of the store. Perhaps short of staff?

If the science around the efficacy of mask wearing is still weak or inconclusive then they would discount their use anyway. I’d imagine.

I wonder whether the scientists’ reticence to reduce the distance is based on their belief that masks won’t be worn sufficiently (whether through a lack of availability or through unwillingness to comply) to mitigate the higher risks of getting closer to other people.
On that note - there are a lot more places selling masks now than a few weeks ago.
