Proc je nizky pocet covid pripadu v Indii? Protoze mandat nosit rousky funguje. To se dokazalo i v Kansasu. Counties ktere zamitly mandat masek meli vzrust pripadu a kde masky pouzivali pripady sly dolu.

Co z toho mas rozsirovat misinformation/bu­llshit) ? Ja si chci myslet, ze si jen delas prdel a provokujes.

The Mystery Of India's Plummeting COVID-19 Cases

"In many Indian municipalities, including the megacity Mumbai, police hand out tickets — fines of 200 rupees ($2.75) — to violators. Mumbai's mask mandate even applies outdoors, to joggers on the beach and passengers in open-air rickshaws."
"Every time they fine a person 200 rupees, they also give them a mask to wear," explains Fernandes, a Mumbai native. "Very stereotypically, we [Indians] are known to break rules! You see traffic rules being broken all the time," she says, laughing.

But in the pandemic, when it comes to masks, ""the police, the monitoring, enforcement — all that was ramped up," .{color: red}" she says.

Authorities reportedly collected the equivalent of $37,000 in mask fines in Mumbai on New Year's Eve alone.

But the fines and mandates appear to have worked: In a survey published in July, 95% of respondents said they wore a mask the last time they went out. The survey was conducted by phone in June by the National Council of Applied Economic Research, India's biggest independent economic policy group.

Awareness is widespread. Whenever you make a phone call in India — on landlines and mobiles — instead of a ring tone, you hear government-sponsored messages warning you to wash your hands and wear a mask. One message was recorded by Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan, 78, who battled and recovered from COVID-19 last summer.

The mask and hand-washing messages have now been replaced with new ones urging people to get vaccinated; India began vaccinations on Jan. 16.
