From Monday May 16, even if it remains recommended, wearing a mask will no longer be compulsory on public transport. In Paris, opinions are divided on this news. “I’m super happy, we’re going to see each other’s faces again”said a young girl. “Personally, I think I’m going to keep wearing it because the virus is still circulating and even though I’m vaccinated, it’s a place where we’re all tight together.”says a man.
