Germany requires FFP2 masks OR op masks. Public transportation requires FFP2, vouchers for FFP2 masks have been issued (huge cash grab for pharmacies, but thats a different story). They are ubiquitous. I just went shopping and all customers wore a ffp2 mask. The cashier was behind totally useless (see: aerosols) plastic shielding and didn't wear any mask thou.

I say this more as an amusing observation than an implicit judgment one way or another.
- geoduck14 5y agoWhy was the plastic shielding useless?
- 1ris 5y agoBecause covid spreads via aerosols, not via droplets. If you could smell a perfume, covid is transmissible. The shielding was just a pice a plastic hanging from the ceiling, not some kind of box. So the cashier was breathing the same air as everybody else.
