Mask is mandatory outdoors all the time in the big cities in France. Sometimes I think it’s just the government taking revenge for when we mocked them for not being able to procure masks — having destroyed their stock of 1 billion masks a year before the pandemic. “You want mask? Ok, wear them now. Who feels stupid now?”

I'm talking about the local park and such. My morning run is through a local small university, currently closed. I see more deer than people some mornings. In that context, I've seen people from a distance walking alone with a mask on. It's 8 am. No one else around. There's no scientific reason for a mask. I believe masks are important. They are essential. But that's no justification for unnecessary masks. In fact, we should be conserving masks. Not wearing them when they're not necessary.
