如果推出戴口罩的政策 將會是“非強制性的建議” Face masks would be ‘advisory not compulsory’ if introduced

看看愛爾蘭政府現時對戴口罩的看法! 愛爾蘭總理 Leo Varadkar今天對記者說，有在考慮人們在公共場合使用口罩以應對冠狀病毒，但這措施將不會是強制性的。

“我認為我們將在本週後期向愛爾蘭公眾提供有修訂的建議。由於科學對此(使用口罩)尚無定論，因此這不是我們要強制性的事，而是我們建議的。”

同時, 蘇格蘭政府發布了指導人們在商店和公共交通等場所遮蓋臉部的指引。 北愛爾蘭將考慮類似的提議。

The use of masks in public is being considered as part of efforts to tackle coronavirus, Taoiseach Leo Varadkar told reporters today but said they would not be compulsory.

“I think we will be in a position to offer revised advice to the Irish public later in the week. Because the science is so uncertain on it, it is not something that we would make compulsory but something we would make advisory.”

His comments came as the Scottish government issued guidance for people to shield their faces in places such as shops and on public transport. The powersharing executive in Northern Ireland is due to consider a similar proposal.
