Court annuls measure on face masks

A court on Friday annulled the extraordinary measure by which the Health Ministry tightened the mandatory wearing of face masks in the Czech Republic on October 21 because the ministry did not state sufficient reasons for the stricter regulation, the court's spokeswoman, Marketa Puci, said on Twitter. The court decided that the measures would be annulled effective November 21, and so the ministry can introduce a new measure that would include the reasons that had been absent by this deadline.
