Face covering guidance updated

The face covering guidance for the general public has been updated and now includes:

  • a clarification that visors are not a substitute for a face covering
  • further clarity about reasonable excuses not to wear a face covering
  • now refers to the changes coming into force on 2nd December

Please note this is distinct from the PPE guidance for homecare staff when at work which is available here: COVID-19: how to work safely in domiciliary care in England - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)
