Covid, Lopalco: “Postpone stop mask indoors in June”

“Dropping the use of the mask indoors in May is not a good idea. Viral circulation is likely to remain at high levels for most of the month. It would be more prudent to move this decision forward to June.” The epidemiologist Pier Luigi Lopalco, professor of hygiene at the University of Salento, explains this to time.news Salute.

Alternatively, “even by eliminating the obligation, it would be important to continue to raise awareness among citizens about a measure, that of the mask, which really costs a little trouble but which works well in reducing viral circulation”, concludes Lopalco.
