Peace to everyone wherever you are.

Belgium made mask wearing mandatory for all children over the age of six, including at school, in early December, with the health minister, Frank Vandenbroucke, saying the key lay in “stopping the engine” of viral transmission among children.

Spain has also required all school children over the age of six to wear face masks in class since the start of the new academic year in September, when the country was recording the highest Covid incidence rate in western Europe.
