Marmaris Governor is shocked after instructing police to stop and issue fines to people without masks amid coronavirus times only to find his SON was one of them. He instructed police to treat his son as he would be anyone violating the “Wear a mask” regime. Being a small town the news spread in the community and served its purpose. Marmaris Gov issued executive order on June 04 prohibiting appearance without a mask in public spaces indoor and outdoor, to help stop the spread of Covid-19. The fine is 900 Turkish lira for breaking the rule. As of now there are no confirmed cases of Covid-19 in Marmaris. Our governor’s rigorous decisions and the police’s actions could well be the key as to how the safety  and well-being of people is protected in Marmaris.
