The use of the mask to contain the spread of the covid epidemic is mandatory at this time outdoors. As well as indoors, throughout Italy. However, this is not an obligation for children under six. People who, due to their disability or pathology, cannot wear the mask also operators or people who, to assist a person with disabilities, cannot, in turn, wear the mask. (for example: who has to speak in the L.I.S. with a deaf person).
The government remembers this on the official website. It is also not mandatory to wear a mask, both outdoors and indoors: while exercising; while eating or drinking, in the places and times in which it permitted; when, due to the characteristics of the places or the factual circumstances, isolation from non-cohabiting people continuously guaranteed.
Regarding the work activity’s performance, the mask is mandatory in the situations provided for by the specific sector protocols. However, the use of masks is strongly recommended even inside private homes, in the presence of non-cohabiting people.

People who have had close contact with a confirmed positive case for covid and who, based on the regulations in force, are not subject to quarantine but only to self-monitoring, up to the tenth day following the last exposure to the positive subject.
Surgical masks – or in any case a device that confers superior protection such as FFP2 masks – must be worn in the context of economic and social activities. (for example, catering, tourist and hospitality activities, wellness centres, personal services, retail trade, museums, exhibitions, cultural clubs, conferences, congresses, etc.) in the situations envisaged in the sector protocols.
In all other situations, unless the sector protocols provide otherwise, “community” masks, disposable, washable, possibly self-produced, can also be used as long as they are made of multilayer materials suitable for providing an adequate barrier and, at the same time, guaranteeing comfort and breathability, shape and adherence adequate to cover the face, from the chin to above the nose.
