Lockdown enforcement measures which saw passengers taken off buses by police for 'non-essential travel' were praised by ECHO readers.
There was a strong response to a story published in the ECHO yesterday about passengers being removed from buses as part of a police operation linked to lockdown restrictions.
The 10 passengers were each dealt with after they were deemed to be undertaking "non-essential travel".
They were stopped as police teams carried out checks on a total of 319 services on Merseyside on Sunday, dealing with more than 1,000 passengers.
Of those, just 27 were not wearing masks when they should have been.
Merseyside Police praised the vast majority of passengers for "doing the right thing to keep themselves and others safe" through abiding by restrictions designed to limit the spread of Coronavirus.

Debbie Daniels said: "I was stopped taking my 84 year old uncle for his Covid jab, I was driving down Mancunian Way when he pulled me over as my car was registered in Ormskirk. He was very civil and just asked me why I was out of my area, when I explained he was more than helpful making sure I knew the directions... personally I was glad to see they are trying to stop the spread of this awful virus."
Ellibo said: "Love it, well done to them, if you're following the rules you have nothing to worry about."
Floydington1 replied to those criticising the measures and said: "It's not [police] who are disgusting, it's the idiots who won’t follow the rules spreading the virus. They are that stupid they can't understand if people don't move the virus can't move and it will just die out, what's difficult to grasp about that."
Frances Rowland said: "If these people on the bus were out for essential food shop or to visit their support bubble then they would not have been removed from the bus or fined."
