LETTERS: Wear masks properly

I was shopping in B&Q in Spalding last week when I noticed another shopper wearing his face covering incorrectly.
The man had a mask on but it wasn’t covering his nose. By the time he got to the till, the mask was on his chin, not covering his nose or mouth.
I then went into Halfords, where I witnessed a similar situation.
What is the point of wearing a mask if you are not wearing it properly?
Please wear your mask correctly otherwise you are putting yourself and others at risk.
