I might be wrong on this and it might actually help if more people now feel comfortable going out shopping but it could go either way. Tbh if compliance is 75% I think that would be a reasonable success as it'd more than double the number currently wearing masks, I don't think this is a law where its absolutely imperative that its enforced to 100% compliance

...yeah, if shop customers decrease because of the mask having to be worn as opposed to shopping online, it’ll be the non essentials which have just re-opened again...the supermarkets have always and would always thrive, regardless of restrictions...
