Paris Requires Outdoor Masks

Seems reasonable.

Bloomberg:

People in Paris will be required to wear masks outside beginning Dec. 31 in an effort to slow the spread of new Covid-19 infections, the French police said on Wednesday.

The order, which applies to everyone over the age of 11, was needed because of the surge in cases in the city from the omicron variant, the police said in a statement.

There are exceptions to the rule, including for cyclists, people in cars and those practicing a sport.

The entire world is going in all different directions right now.

It’s total chaos.

Some countries are saying “Omicron” is spreading everywhere but it isn’t that deadly.

Some countries are saying that “deadly” means nothing and the only thing that matters is infections.

This is the same chaos we saw in December and January of 2020.
