My submission from Turkey is a refined one: the lone swimmer was *pulled* from the water to be talked at from a close distance by two police officers, and may well need to go to an indoors court to pay a fine. (Tourists, though, are allowed to swim there).https://twitter.com/indigodergisi/status/1388539306189414403 …

The fact-check is on-brand, too! "That’s mostly right — it was a paddle boarder, not a surfer, out on the water at a beach that was closed to slow the spread of COVID-19." Please get the water device correct, people! https://twitter.com/HJWallEcon/status/1394390583653900289 …pic.twitter.com/DQlOpCBn9S

Also, folks, do note: I was confident that this thread wouldn't turn into tragicomic reflections mostly from poorer countries! Not at all! (If anything, some poorer countries have more robust public health reflexes). The struggle, so to speak, is global.

Israel had an outdoor mask mandate for close to a year. But you were exempt if you were smoking a cigarette.

That's not true. The forms could be downloaded and printed. What we didn't know is what the forms were *for*. In theory, they showed the time they were printed and the address, and we were supposed to stay within 1km & no more than 1hr. Obviously that was easily falsified.
