Mask requirement lifted, music ban continues

After the Scientific Council meeting, the obligation to use masks in closed areas was lifted, while the ban on music after 12 was not lifted again. President Erdogan, who made statements after the meeting of the Scientific Council, announced that the requirement for masks in closed spaces had been completely removed. However, there was no new decision on music ban after 24:00 despite call from artists in this direction.

According to the decision taken, only the application of masks in public transport and medical institutions will continue for a while until the cases drop below 1000. On the other hand, it was announced that the Scientific Council had agreed on the decision not to hold meetings unless there was an extraordinary situation after that.

The ban on music forgotten

At the Scientific Council meeting, where many new decisions on the epidemic were announced, no decision was made on the ‘ban on music after 12 o’clock at night’, which has been going on since the beginning of the pandemic. The calls of artists, musicians, venue owners again went unanswered.
