Goodbye Face Masks, Hello July!

Posted on by Inga | 57 comments

No this is not a drill and no, it’s certainly not a prank. We are finally free from wearing masks!

Recently, our health minister Joe Phaahla quietly gazetted a notice that immediately removed any legal obligation to wear a face mask in South Africa.

This came in as a huge surprise for most South Africans because face masks have been a feature of South African life for more than TWO years. Then suddenly, they were gone.

We are certainly excited to not worry about wearing a mask at the gym or just to enter a mall or a restaurant (where we would actually have to remove the mask again to eat).

One thing is for sure, we will definitely miss wearing a mask as a cover-up when we don’t feel like being too social in public spaces😅

How are you feeling about this bro? What are your thoughts?

WANT TO GET CREATIVE WITH YOUR FACE MASK STASH?

Innovative suggestions for how to deal with masks you no longer need include:

We know that in reality, virtually all masks are most likely to end up in the dustbin and from there go to landfill sites, becoming part of the long-running problem of dealing with general waste.

There is, at least, ONE thing you can do to mitigate the potential harm that it may have on the environment: cut the rubber bands on both sides of a disposable mask before disposing of it.

That’s it from us, we are excited to see your full face bro!

So what are your thoughts gents? Let us know in the comments below if you are happy to be saying goodbye to face masks or not. We would like to see your thoughts😁

    The face mask article made my year literally, the suggestion to how to get rid of them left me feeling creative and to think I didn’t think of those ideas 💡

    It’s been a long journey to get here and it was hard and heartbreaking because we’ve lost so many people but we are still thankful we survived and keep on moving forward

    Thank you MANBOX

    I actually feel like it’s too early to unmask especially this winter. The weather conditions are favorable for covid. Especially in public transport or places it’s not safe at all. But then it’s up to you as an individual on how you take. Thank you manbox for giving me the platform to share my thoughts

    Loving being out and about without the face mask, however, we still need to be vigilant. Still maintaining social distance and avoiding large crowds.
