Although the Executive Power decided to eliminate the restrictive measures due to covid-19 and that the President of the Republic himself, Luis Abinader, declined the use of masks, the collaborators of the National Palace have chosen not to give up the use of face masks as a measure. of protection in the midst of the pandemic.
Without it being an obligation, much less an imposition from the government headquarters, the employees of the Government House have preferred to continue protecting themselves from the disease by wearing masks.
However, the members of the Presidential Guard, who are responsible for the security of the National Palace, use this utensil little and there are few who wear it on their faces.
Nor is it a mandatory measure to be able to access the building, as it was before the Executive decision announced by Abinader last Wednesday, February 16.
Visitors, on the other hand, do show this artifact, and put it to good use. They do not have them under their noses and they do not have them in their hands either, so he understands that they have taken into account the message that “taking care of yourself is your responsibility” and the recommendation made by Public Health that masks be kept in open and closed spaces. In the streets, avenues, public transport and other public and private places, Dominicans continue to use face masks, after the announcement of the end of the restrictions.
