Since the decision to wear masks in the open air caused a great resonance, the representative of the Ministry of Health, Margarita Kyriakou, explained in which situations the use of masks in the streets and restaurants is mandatory and when it is possible to abandon the mask.

Margarita Kyriakou stressed that the mask is now mandatory outdoors, and added that if you are on busy streets where there are many people, a mask is necessary. This also applies to visits to various events, where wearing a mask is mandatory.

However, if you decide to walk in the park and are far enough away from other visitors, then you do not need to wear a mask.

In restaurants and cafes, you need a mask only at the entrance to the institution, and, sitting at the table, you do not need to wear a mask. But, if you decide to approach, for example, your friends in the same institution, you will have to wear a mask before approaching to another table.
