The crease is green at 56.7 per lakh residents. In this case, the prefect announced Virginia Darfule France Blue Masks will not be mandatory everywhere from this Tuesday to Thursday. It can be removed when walking alone or with family on a busy street. On the other hand, it will have to continue to be put in stores or markets.

It is true that scientists now agree that the risk of SARS-CoV-2 contamination is very limited outside, while enclosed spaces are more threatening. In Ireland, only 0.1% of positive cases are diagnosed, according to the Health Protection Monitoring Center (HPSC) agency, from a do-it-yourself activity (construction site, sports, etc.).

Recommendations of the Minister of Health

However, Health Minister Olivier Warren is cautious about wearing a mask outside. “We are not in France yet. We will be there soon, ”he explained on BFM TV on Monday evening. “When you’re out, in the middle of a big city, there are a lot of shops, you queue outside, you eat, you see people. There, as long as we do not have adequate vaccination coverage, it seems more prudent to maintain the obligation to wear the mask, ”he added.

On the other hand, “If you are alone or in a very large area, such as the beach, the mountain, the forest, the park, the desolate street, we need to be able to bring it back quickly. In this case, wearing a mask is a liability. If the virus continues to circulate, it will be considered quickly,” he said.
