Masks - Change of rules in Valencia
#18

.... Obliging people to wear masks in semi-deserted streets is not going to solve these problems. As I suggested in my previous post in the thread, contagion in open air just walking down a street is highly unlikely. I really don't see why I can be fined for walking past a terrace without a mask while those sitting close together on the terrace or in the bar can do so with impunity.
I see people wearing KN95 masks just to take the dog for a walk. In hospitals, the doctors and nurses in ordinary circumstances don't wear these.
There is a lack of information and common sense here. Plus I fear that people will think that wearing a mask is sufficient and they can forget other things.

I think the whole "patio dining" exception is a bone thrown to bars and restaurants to try to get them some revenue, but personally I wouldn't feel comfortable sitting among a cluster of tables with unmasked diners even though they are outside.
