Uber Extends Its Face-Covering Requirement Indefinitely

Uber is doubling down on its mask-wearing rule by extending the requirement indefinitely for rides in the U.S. and Canada.

But with infections rates on the rise in numerous states across the U.S., the company now says riders and drivers must wear a face covering during trips until further notice.

If a passenger refuses to wear a face covering, drivers have the power to cancel the ride.

Likewise, if a driver is not wearing a covering, the passenger can cancel the trip and also report the driver.

The ridesharing behemoth is asking drivers to snap a selfie at the start of their shift to show they’re wearing a mask.

It also sends a notification to riders to remind them of the mask requirement prior to the start of a trip.

Regularly discarding, or washing, a face covering is also an important part of mask hygiene.

Ridesharing numbers tanked earlier this year as stay-at-home measures were put in place in a bid to slow the spread of the coronavirus.

Remember Coronavirus is still around us.

We need to be careful, world can not afford an other covid-19 wide spread due to negligence.

Be safe and provide others a healthy living and working space.

We all live in the same sphere and we have to help each other to make it a safe place.
