Any person who wishes can now access cinemas, theaters, restaurants, fairs, etc., without needing to present a vaccination pass, or walk through the corridors of schools and the aisles of shops with their face uncovered. However, this does not mean the complete end of mask-wearing, which remains mandatory in public transportation and healthcare facilities.
Nonetheless, companies can still decide to impose it on their employees.
The virus is circulating a lot, more so today than it did with the variants that preceded Omicron, for example.
Regarding the wearing of masks, which is no longer mandatory, it is an individual decision that primarily depends on your own vulnerability, if you are at risk of severe forms of illness.
This Saturday, the number of new infections was 70,000, which is 10,000 more than the previous Saturday. According to epidemiologists, the Omicron sub-variant, BA.2, is more contagious than its predecessor, which explains this resurgence of the epidemic.
