Face Covering Exemption Card guidance from the UK Government website reads:

• “Some people may feel more comfortable showing something that says they do not have to wear a face covering.  This could be in the form of an exemption card, badge or even a home-made sign.   This is a personal choice and is not necessary in law.  Those who have an age, health or disability reason for not wearing a face covering should not be routinely asked to give any written evidence of this.  Written evidence includes exemption cards.”

About Asthma

• Asthma is a common long-term inflammatory disease of the airways of the lungs.  It is characterised by variable and recurring symptoms, reversible airflow obstruction, and easily triggered bronchospasms.  Symptoms include episodes of wheezing, coughing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath. These may occur a few times a day or a few times per week. Depending on the person, asthma symptoms may become worse at night or with exercise.
• Asthma is thought to be caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors.  Environmental factors include exposure to air pollution and allergens. Other potential triggers include medications such as aspirin and beta blockers.  Diagnosis is usually based on the pattern of symptoms, response to therapy over time, and spirometry lung function testing.  Asthma is classified according to the frequency of symptoms, forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), and peak expiratory flow rate.  It may also be classified as atopic or non-atopic, where atopy refers to a predisposition toward developing a type 1 hypersensitivity reaction.
