The coronavirus pandemic has meant that the use of face masks and coverings are compulsory on public transport and supermarkets and shops across the UK.

In the UK the police are able to intervene if people are not wearing masks and fines can also be issued.

However some people are exempt from wearing masks and this includes people who suffer with conditions such as asthma.

Many people feel uncomfortable wearing masks and coverings - finding them a nuisance and feeling claustrophobic.

Scientists in Brazil have now claimed that people who refuse to wear masks and comply with safety measures have antisocial personality traits.

2. "You're not the boss of me! You can't tell ME what to do!" AKA Snotty little kid syndrome.

If you have asthma and are not having an attack, you are fine. I played football for six years with two guys that had asthma. There was a time or two it came on and they had to sit out practice.
