in my experience (about two dozen flights since April) the busy-bodies who think they have the ‘right’ to police *their interpretation * of any rule (ie often wrongly- like for those with asthma), are always the ones who ignore distancing on boarding/leaving and seem to think that a face mask means distancing, hand washing or simple politeness are no longer needed.
In one case, the crew quite firmly told the offenders to leave them to do their job as only they knew who had underlying conditions.
Frankly BA crew do this very well.
as for spacing/distancing a little self responsibility wouldn’t go amiss. If someone is too close to you then move, or leave the situation.
Interesting reading on Euronews (use google) about how much lower risk flying is.
