Face masks to be compulsory on public transport in England with fines for non-compliance – BBC News

by

From June 15th face coverings will be compulsory, for anyone using public transport in England.

People without one won’t be allowed to travel and failing to wear one on a journey could lead to a fine. The government says people should start wearing them now, with the rules enforced from the middle of June

Dozens of other countries already have rules in place on the wearing of face masks and coverings in public places.

Clive Myrie presents BBC News at Ten reports from Transport Correspondent Tom Burridge, Science Editor David Shukman and Political Correspondent Vicki Young.
