Compulsory masks in public places is a measure that is starting to be implemented in Albania, both in neighboring countries and in those of Western Europe.
On Thursday, October 15, 2020, the Normative Act enters into force.
IPH specialist Eugena Tomini said: “Looking at the prevalence of the virus, increased positive cases, high mortality, lack of vaccine and low awareness of the population, not only here but also in Europe, it was considered reasonable to impose this measure. It is a situation with few known sides.
“The fine sum has not been set yet, but it is expected to be around 3000 lek, for anyone caught in violation of the normative act. It will be received through the energy bill. Although many memes circulate on social networks that satirize the statements of our experts, I would say that social media has its work and we have ours. We did have this knowledge about the virus in March, as we have it now. We will continue with the measures for the maximum preservation of the health of our population.”
