Medical masks in the service buildings of the city administration

Citizens are obliged to wear medical masks in the service buildings of the city administration from Monday, February 1, 2021. Visitors will be made aware of the regulation with posters.

With a corresponding resolution, the crisis team of the city of Bonn has oriented itself to the current Corona Protection Ordinance of the state, which prescribes the wearing of a medical mask when shopping, visiting a doctor, and in buses and trains. These are so-called surgical masks, FFP2 masks or masks of the KN95/N95 standards. The employees of the city administration who are engaged in serving the citizens also wear medical masks.
