In the early Friday evening, some are already strolling along the promenade on the eastern shore of Lake Wörthersee with masks in hand. Some have even drawn them over their mouths. Also Giancarlo from Ravenna, Italy. “I was told pantomime at the reception today that there was a mask requirement from 9 p.m. I’ve been walking around like that since breakfast, I don’t mind, ”said the Italian.
In order to prevent misunderstandings, the municipality of Velden has set up four information stations including a mask. “The greatest uncertainty for people is where you now have to wear a mask and where not,” explains Martina, who is handing out masks at a stand. Even an elderly lady next to the stand doesn’t mind wearing it. “I think it’s a shame that it doesn’t work independently.”
Attention control
Checks are made at exactly 9 p.m. Most of the night owls also agree.
“You just have to look at other countries like Israel and see how the second wave can strike,” says a woman. But not everyone finds the controls appropriate. There is an audible lack of understanding between an elderly gentleman and the law enforcement officers. “Don’t you have better things to do?” He asks the law enforcement officers before reluctantly putting on his mask – only to put them off again ten meters away.
A mother who swings with her child in the playground vehemently refuses. “Ridiculous! Why is that not true in the lido? ”The police leave it at a warning. On Friday, however, this was not always the case: ten advertisements, five organ sentences. “The later it got, the more we had to intervene,” said district captain Bernd Riepan.
