...so close to each other in mini-buses or jeepneys in my city (Baguio) lately. Currently, our city is in level 1. It means that local transportations are allowed to let passengers be so close side-by-side. The situation seems normal except that wearing face masks is still a must-do. I am curious about your place if it is the same scenario now. Care to share? Image Credit: media.interaksyon.com

we have to wear a mask in doctors offices and hospitals. Most of us wear a mask when we’re in stores. I wear a mask when I go out among people. We are having less covid right now.

I think I am glad that the cases are becoming lower there now. It is best to keep wearing face masks still.

@Shavkat For a few weeks the cases were heavier but now it’s looking better again. If everyone would wear a mask maybe it would soon go away.

@RubyHawk I agree. I hope people will participate to aim for this specific goal.

Same here in the capital only the face masks are mandatory at this point in time. We have been like that for several weeks already. So far, the cases are manageable and not as serious as before. The rallies are even more intense as each candidate would love to show to their contenders that they have a large crowd gathered in their political sorties. But so far there is no upsurge happening afterward. I hope this continues until the election day so we can exercise our right to vote on that day.

@Shavkat That is another concern since the rivalry between them is so intense that they intend to make accusations of cheating in the coming elections.

@rsa101 That is the reason why I do not watch and read any news about politics lately.

It seems that traveling is much better than before. Politically, I can tell that is becoming intense these past few days. I hope the votation per see will be peaceful.

Our buses are different, they are seats inside and they are not so close. Masks are still mandatory.

I must say that I prefer the plastic boundaries installed during the pandemic in our transportations here and there.

@Shavkat This is a photo of the inside of one of our Swiss bus. During the pandemic only one person was allowed, the close seat had to be left empty.

As of Friday midnight, almost all our restrictions will be lifted. We'll only need masks in hospitals, aged care and that's about all.

It is also the same thing here. The only difference is that medical workers need to use face masks and face shields in hospitals nationally here.
