In a week's time, the wearing of a mouth and nose cover will become obligatory in Jena's sales outlets, public transport and buildings with public access. This measure has been called for by the Health Service. This will increase the safety of staff in public life. In addition to self-made mouth-and-nose covers, scarves or shawls are also recognised as protection. However, these must also cover the nose and mouth.
