Mask manufacturer: Everyone should be required to wear surgical or N95 masks

A mask manufacturer thinks new rules around face coverings should go even further. 

The Government's tightening rules around mask wearing. 

From tomorrow week, they'll be required in all food and drink venues, close-proximity businesses, events and gatherings.  

And face coverings must be an actual mask as opposed to scarves, bandannas or T-shirts pulled up over the face. 

Any workers covered by a vaccine mandate will be required to wear a surgical-grade or N95 mask. 

But Nick Davenport, founder of mask manufacturer Lanaco, told Roman Travers that should go for everyone. 

“I think it’s a little informed decision and the information behind it and the science behind it differs from the policy that’s been offered.”
