Yes, the aspect of not wearing them properly is the exact parallel of cycle h*lm*ts. Anyway, compulsion is nonsense and should be rescinded pronto.
Oliver Schick-
I've ordered some elastic band and thin fabric so I can make some comfortable masks I can wash easily, don't think it'll be rescinded here anytime soon. Sachsen has been all too keen on ridiculous measures, being one of only two states with a real lockdown. (The effectiveness of which was debatable too, the country-wide distancing rules were completely ignored by those who did go out.)

As mentioned upthread, the masks issue makes for a nice game of cycle helmet parallels bingo.

Here in Leipzig (Sachsen had already mandated masks in retail and public transport) that's exactly the case, so many improperly worn and handled masks. People just sliding them over their chin as soon as they leave a store, supermarkt workers only covering their mouth but not their nose, the queues in Dresden for the government-provided masks, most likely no or inadequate disinfection after wearing, et cetera.
It's an absolute shit show, even more so because people have stopped keeping their distance in stores, from what I can see through the windows of trams in public transport people are trying their best, but that probably won't last long either.
