mask mandate still in effect in Israel

The Cabinet decided this evening to not cancel the mask mandate but to leave it in place, requiring mask wearing indoors in public places, and to revisit the matter after Pesach.

A lot of Corona rules have not made much sense. Sometimes it was fair, not enough information, too much confusion, people trying their best in a very difficult and unclear situation. 

But now? Why keep a mask mandate that is hardly being enforced and hardly being observed? Individuals are wearing masks indoors, and some public places require it though dont strongly enforce it. In most places the overwhelming majority of people are no longer wearing masks. Why continue a mask mandate that hardly anybody is keeping and that the government is hardly enforcing and that at this point in the pandemic is still nto even clear that it does anything?

The mandate should have been canceled. Just like the government has said, protect yourselves, we are not making lockdowns, the government should have said we are not requiring masks, if you want to wear one go ahead - be responsible and take your own precautions.

  1. I have the feeling that as the corona has not yet left us, we need some sort of preventive measures. If we just have a little more patience, yes even after 2 years, things will be fine.
