“Only inside and on the small ring around Kortrijk (R36) it is mandatory to wear a mouth mask”, says Mayor Vincent Van Quickenborne (Open VLD). “Outside the R36 you are not obliged to set it up, but you do have one in your pocket. This way you can put on the mouth mask every time you meet someone or when you come to a busy place. It is still mandatory in public buildings. “
“We can implement this easing because the numbers allow us to,” said the mayor. “Since the mouth mask is mandatory on the entire territory of Kortrijk, only 42 reports have been drawn up. Our residents have therefore adhered to the rules, thank you.”
