Therefore I think that it should not only be highly recommended, as the DGS says but also mandatory for all children from 6 years of age "."He always wore it last year and he did not complain, all the students took it, it is just a matter of habit and that the parents do not say" poor children ". They get used to it."

I think the pandemic is basically controlled in Portugal and therefore, obviously, we have to pay attention when we talk to each other and wear a mask, but in general, terms, to walk down the street, I think it was a good move. "2.- "I will continue to wear a mask on the street when I interact with other people. If not, I go without a mask (...) At this moment we have 75-85% of the vaccinated population, in terms of figures the pandemic is basically controlled and therefore it was the ideal moment ". António:1.- "It's bad.
