In the large multipurpose room of the town hall of Sceaux, a dozen municipal officers repeat the same gesture since 8 am. Open an envelope, put on a mask and instructions. Close the missive and go to the next one. A chain work which will last several more long hours to allow the City to distribute from Thursday morning washable cloth masks, folded, in all mailboxes in the town of Hauts-de-Seine.
The UDI mayor of Sceaux, Philippe Laurent, who had issued a decree - canceled by the courts since - a few weeks ago, forcing his citizens to cover their noses and mouths, has just received nearly 30,000 reusable masks that he now plans to offer each household by post. Or approximately 10,000 envelopes each containing a mask. The Scéens who wish to obtain more to equip all the people in their household will be able to request it on Monday via a form attached to the mail.
