Persoanele care se opun purtării măștilor


Definition from own experience or research:
Din nefericire, nu cred că există o traducere mai scurtă care să sune bine. Persoanele anti-mască nu sună prea elegant, așa că tot la persoanele care se opun purtării măștilor sau persoanele care refuză să poarte mască ajungem.

Example sentence(s):
  • La Varşovia, câteva sute de persoane care se opun obligativităţii purtării măştii şi care neagă existenţa pandemiei s-au adunat în centrul oraşului pentru a protesta împotriva noilor restricţii. - www.stiridiaspora.ro  
  • Incidentul a avut loc după o demonstrație de o zi întreagă la care au participat zeci de mii se oameni ce se opun purtării de măști... - www.mediafax.ro
