Face Masks Now Mandatory in Public Indoor Spaces - VOCM

It’s a new way of life in Newfoundland and Labrador today.

Non-medical masks are now required in public indoor spaces in Newfoundland and Labrador.

People will need to wear a mask that covers both their mouth and nose in indoor places including retail stores, shopping malls, theatres, salons, on public transit, common areas of offices, post-secondary institutions, and other places.

There are a number of exemptions within the new guidelines. Children under the age of five are not expected to wear a mask, nor are people with physical or mental health concerns that prevent them from wearing one.

Chief Medical Officer of Health, Dr. Janice Fitzgerald, says the new measure is to help protect others in anticipation of a second wave of COVID-19 arriving in the province.

She says those unable to wear a mask will not be asked for supporting documents.

Meanwhile, bars are included in the indoor public spaces where non-medical masks must be worn starting today.

Masks can be removed when people are sitting and socially distanced but they are mandatory when a person is being served.

Congregating around the bar area is no longer allowed but you can order at the bar and seat yourself or a server will come to you.
