a).- By people who have some type of respiratory difficulty that may be aggravated by the use of a mask.
b).- By persons for whom the use of a mask is contraindicated for duly justified health reasons, or who, due to their disability or dependency, have behavioural disorders that make its use unfeasible.
c).- In the development of activities in which, due to their very nature, the use of a mask is incompatible.
d).- Due to force majeure or a situation of need.
