Answer

Should I wear a mask in Mallorca hospitals and care homes?

Mask use is being discussed again in hospitals and care homes because winter respiratory infections can spread quickly in those settings. The practical advice is to follow the rules of the facility you are visiting, especially if you are seeing vulnerable people. In Mallorca, that is particularly important in places where older patients or residents live close together.
