London: Less than half of young people in Britain are wearing face masks in public, a poll by YouGov suggests, but eight in 10 over-65s are continuing to use them.
The survey suggests use of masks among 18 to 24-year-olds has slumped since July 19, with around 46 per cent saying they have worn a face mask in a public place in the past two weeks, compared with 58 per cent on July 16 and 64 per cent on June 2.
