Great news.....

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez stated today that masks would no longer have to be worn outdoors in the country from Saturday June 26 onward. The much-awaited announcement came at a time when the vaccination campaign has moved on to the over-40 age group in much of the country, and with the incidence of the virus at its lowest level since last August.

That's very good news but the report also states:

"Masks will still be required, however, when a safe distance of 1.5 meters cannot be maintained with people outside your closest social bubble"

So we will still need to have a mask readily available just in case!!

My understanding is its only 'proposed' and not an actual fact as yet, but it makes good headlines. Suggest everyone waits for it being put into law and even then read the small print lol.

Yes reading the article it seems the matter will be discussed by parliament next Thursday for decision to be made.

La presidenta de la Comunidad de Madrid, Isabel Díaz Ayuso, ha dado la "bienvenida" a la decisión de quitar la obligatoriedad de llevar mascarillas en exteriores el 26 de junio, aunque ha criticado al Gobierno central por hacerlo con el objetivo de conseguir "titulares" y por "efectos demoscópicos"

That sounds positive
