Health requires the return of compulsory use of the mask
- You want to do it in health and social care centres. On Monday morning the regional health authorities will meet to propose the decision of the ministry. By law, every community has the last word.
The Ministry of Health convenes an extraordinary and urgent meeting this morning on Monday, due to the saturation of hospitals and health centers in recent weeks due to respiratory diseases. The intention of the Ministry of Health is to take a joint decision. In fact, some autonomous communities have already taken action on their own and, as the ministry has shown its agreement, Minister Mónica García intends to generalize them.
For example, in Valencia, since last week it has been mandatory to use a mask in health centers and socio-sanitary areas such as pharmacies and nursing homes. Aragon is putting this measure into effect from today. In Catalonia, for its part, the measure has been limited to the health centers and in Murcia. On the contrary, the governments of Madrid and the Balearic Islands are opposed to the return of masks in compulsory condition.
In Hego Euskal Herria only the recommendation
The Basque Government and the Government of Navarra have been defending "precariousness" against the symptoms. As a recommendation, that is, to put mask in case of symptoms. The government last weekend defended the decision-making capacity of the autonomous communities, and although the Ministry of Health has recommended the coercion of masks, it has expressed its intention not to apply them. The Minister of Health of Navarra, Fernando Domínguez, for his part, states that he would be willing to implement the measure if the subject is analyzed in depth.
