‘If I wear a mask I get flashbacks'

A woman has told ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio 5 Live that she’s been shouted at for not wearing a mask, despite being exempt because it triggers flashbacks of being raped.

Georgina Fallows suffers from post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and said she avoids places where you need to wear a mask because of the reaction she gets from members of the public.

She told Duncan Barkes on ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio 5 Live that she thinks there should be an official badge for people who are exempt from wearing masks.

If you have been affected by any of these issues, help and support is available at /actionline/.
