In addition, from today, especially for the supermarkets or the public transport, it is mandatory to use a double mask or a mask of high protection N95 (KN95)
In a clarifying question, Mr. Plevris underlined that the use of mask is also mandatory in churches as well as that we are also obliged to use a mask in theaters, cinemas and entertainment venues.
