In Paris, in a good part of the Île-de-France, in Lyon or in the Bouches-du-Rhône, the authorities have reinstated the wearing of masks outside. The measure even concerns children from the age of 11.
On the faces of many passers-by in Lyon (Rhône), the mask has made a big comeback outside Friday, December 31 in the morning, and the measure is variously appreciated. “The weather is nice, we want to take it off to breathe normally”, a woman says. “I think it’s normal, if we want to get out of this pandemic, we have to wear the mask”, says another passerby.
As in Lyon, the prefects of many cities have decided to restore the mask outdoors in order to fight against the spread of Covid-19. In Paris, police checks began in the afternoon of Friday, December 31. For those who do not respect the rule, a fine of 135 euros is imposed. “I think we have to start rebelling a bit and take responsibility for our choices”, however annoys a refractory.
