Should masks be made mandatory for joggers and cyclists? 

There is a debate in the UK about making it mandatory for joggers and cyclists to wear masks if they cannot maintain a distance of at least one metre from pedestrians.  

Paris had planned on introducing the measure but U-turned on it at the last moment. 

A lot of countries have mandatory mask wearing in public – here it is recommended by NPHET but is not obligatory.  

Claire was joined by callers to share their views.
