Children over 6 years old will have to wear masks in public places, transport and markets in France, and no longer under 11 years old as recommended until now, according to the French Official Gazette, published this Saturday. Only places dedicated to artistic or sporting activities are exempt from the levy.

In France, children aged between 12 and 17 years can be vaccinated against covid-19 and, from this month onwards, voluntary injections are also open to children aged between 5 and 11, although with different dosages compared to vaccination for adults. The measure on the use of masks in minors takes place two days before returning to the classroom after school holidays.

Measures affecting public transport were also made official, such as the return of the capacity limit and the ban on eating or drinking inside buses, trains and the subway.
