Most of the countries are under strict lockdown at this moment, in a hope to flatten the curve. However, many incidents are reported as a challenge to the measures while containing the spread of coronavirus that is causing COVID-19. Millions are being infected and with no vaccination being available yet, people are asked to stay at home and step only for essential services but adhering social distancing rules in public places and wearing masks. A woman in Ukraine was denied service recently as she was not wearing a face mask, while visiting a post office at Kiev. The staff at the office told she would not be attended unless she was wearing a protective mask.
