BENGALURU: People may have to continue wearing facemasks for some more time although the third wave of Covid-19 is receding. The Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) advised the rule should be continued till December at least.
Officials said the state has decided to enforce Covid-appropriate behaviour (CAB) tentatively till the year-end. The health department sought TAC's advice about masks following an RTI query in which the applicant sought to know when the government would lift CAB rules that mandate wearing of masks and maintaining social distancing.
