France, masks everywhere.

[chaser]

Just been reliably informed by someone who lives there, that now in the majority of departments masks have got to be worn outside.

 

[Clarky]

France seem to have the same problems with the Delta (Indian) variant that we had a few weeks back.
Aude Department have now ruled that masks should be worn in 10 towns.
Keep away from large towns and cities, as we always do, and you should be OK.

How can they downgrade and then put in new measures, it is all a shambles.

Wasn’t the case 4 days ago when we were there.

No it's just been brought in, and not in all departments.
Definitely in Bordeaux area.

they should not keep changing. Masks if you cannot keep 2m away from anyone when outside & mandatory anywhere inside.

I think in general people are doing that anyway . Certainly around here

 

[Pilote87]

We were in Fouras in the Charente Maritime last week and the rule imposed there was that masks had to be worn within the pedestrianised area, but there seemed to be a relaxation in other parts of the town. Having said that, many people still kept them on when walking along the sea front, etc

I went this morning, no masks outside and no mention of it

I agree . It’s a simple rule and has to help

 

[Lucky]

No masks outside in my part of Correze, although required inside shops etc

Was in Brive and Tulle today and pretty much masks in always and out when in close proximity

 

[jongood]

I cannot see the point of wearing masks outside unless you re actually in a queue. I recently heard a medical type on the radio say that the effect of these crappy chinese masks on the virus is similar to throwing ball bearings at a scaffold. An FPP3 is a different ballgame but thats not what people are wearing.

Unless you're wearing proper medical grade masks/PPE, other people not wearing any could affect you, being double jabbed would help though.

Double-jab does not stop you catching it.
It reduces the effect that getting it may have.

That’s one of the reasons we almost always shop in Waitrose…………sensible people.

"Maybe" some departments are different, here in Mayenne as far as I am aware, the wearing of masks is obligatory in shops and supermarkets but advisory when walking around town. We will still wear our's when in crowded places such as outdoor markets etc

It will have expired before in that case.....

It's here to stay.
