President of the St.Vincent and the Grenadines Teachers Union, Oswald Robinson, during a press conference on Tuesday, referred to the wearing of a mask all day as much of a discomfort.
The president said that this is the reason why the wearing of a mask all day is a recommendation and not a requirement.
Robinson noted that there are people who have respiratory issues such as asthma, for whom wearing masks is a challenge.
He said his union knows that there have been issues and teachers and students have expressed concerns about the wearing of face coverings.
