The Saskatoonians have to cover up again now.
On Monday, Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo signed an ordinance calling on companies to require employees and customers to wear masks. The order expires on June 30th.
In facilities, customers must enter the store wearing a mask and cannot remove it until they sit down at their table. Masks must be worn whenever you leave the table to go to the bathroom or go out of business. You don’t need to wear a mask when eating or drinking. Children under the age of 10 are exempt.
Corporations can face a $ 1,000 fine for not mandating masks. Acceptable items of clothing include a homemade mask, scarf, headscarf, or handkerchief. Medical masks or N-95 respirators are not recommended as they are most needed by first responders and health workers.
