The National Association of Public Health Physicians argues that continued mask use on the street is “strongly recommended”.
The president of the National Association of Physicians of Public Health, Gustavo Tato Borges, told TSF that from a public health point of view, the use of the mask should continue, although this is a political decision. .
“It is highly recommended that the most vulnerable people or even people who come into contact with more vulnerable users are concerned about protecting their health and even the citizen in general, they will always have a conscientious, civic and positive attitude when using his mask in situations where he cannot keep his distance, even outdoors “.
For public health doctors mask It should continue to be used in the streets and schools “Until we have a very controlled epidemiological situation, less than 120 cases per 100,000 population, or until we finish the epidemic.”
It was learned Monday that masks will not be mandatory on the street from next week. The Social Democrats “gently look” that the diploma, which runs until Sunday, will not be renewed. The Socialists agree with the government and the Directorate General of Health (DGS), which recommend the use of masks in crowds on public roads during the winter.
