If you have a mask on, any covid particles you cough or sneeze out are trapped within it. Without the mask there is still the possibility of the driver spreading covid onto, say, the steering wheel, then onto his hands and then once out of the cab he could be spreading it anywhere.

stevewinn Posted February 22, 2021 #2059 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Covid vaccines - 'spectacular' impact on serious illness The first results of the UK vaccination programme suggests it is having a "spectacular" impact on preventing serious illness. Research led by Public Health Scotland found at four weeks after the first dose, hospital admissions were reduced by 85% and 94% for the Pfizer and AstraZeneca jabs respectively. It is the first sign of the real world impact of vaccination in the UK. Figures for England are expected to be released later. Among the over 80s, there was an overall 81% reduction in the numbers admitted to hospital. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-56153600 The British Government right to go down the single jab route with a 9 to 11 week gap.

Eldorado Posted February 23, 2021 #2068 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Travel firms say there has been a surge in overseas holiday bookings following the Prime Minister's announcement of the road map out of lockdown. Despite question marks over the return of international travel, the UK's biggest holiday operator, Tui, said bookings jumped 500% overnight. The government said a decision on easing international travel would not happen until mid-May at the earliest. But Tui said its bookings for July-onwards had soared. BBC report The number of people dying weekly in England and Wales has dropped by almost 2,000, provisional figures from the Office for National Statistics show. Data revealed by the ONS shows 15,354 people died across the two nations in the week ending 12 February. This was 1,838 fewer deaths than the previous week - but still, 3,429 (28%) higher than the five-year average for that week.
