According to a survey conducted by ARD-DeutschlandTRENDs Oktober in Germany, roughly 63 percent of respondents thought that an expansion of wearing masks, which would make it mandatory to also wear a mask on busy public streets and squares in addition to wearing them in stores and on public transportation, was going in the right direction in order to limit coronavirus (COVID-19) infections. 34 percent thought otherwise.
Is the expansion of the mask requirement to include mouth and nose covering for busy public streets and squares going in the right or wrong direction?
Missing percentage points for 100 percent: "Don't know"/ "No answer".
The survey question was worded as follows: "Due to the coronavirus (COVID-19), a mask is currently required when shopping and on public transport. In order to limit corona infections, it is being discussed to make it mandatory to wear a mouth and nose cover for busy public streets and squares too. Do you think such a measure is going in the right or wrong direction? "
