Penalties for missing a face mask
One of the pressing topics today is the mask regimen, which is often called mask-glove mode. We are talking about the declared ban on the appearance in public places without masks. And this ban is explained by protection against coronavirus infection.
If a person appears without protective equipment in the form of a mask, for example, in a bus, store or pharmacy, then he is promised an impressive fine. However, in the same pharmacies, shops and public transport you can meet people without masks. Moreover, law enforcement officers do not always have questions for them.
On the Know Right YouTube channel, the lawyer explains the situation regarding the mask regime. Is it possible to not be fined for being in a store or somewhere else (where you had to meet with the police) without a medical mask?
The lawyer Denis Eliseev, commenting on the situation, notes that the mask regime, in contrast to the regime of self-isolation, is not based on decisions of the federal level, but is established by resolution of the head of a particular region. The lawyer says that the regional authorities issued decrees on wearing a mask, but they did not spell out what a “face mask” is.
