March 3. 2023.	Arrêt n° 00178	Constitutional Court of Luxembourg	Right to privacy	The Constitutional Court of Luxembourg held that mandatory mask wearing with reasonable medical exemptions was constitutional during the public health emergency.	Mandatory mask wearing was ordered in Luxembourg, but exceptions were provided on medical grounds and for such public places, where at least two meters were left between the persons. A woman refused to wear a mask in an airplane, where proper distance could not be kept. A criminal investigation was opened against her, and she contested the constitutionality of the mandatory mask wearing rule, which meant in her view a violation of right to privacy. The criminal judge suspended the proceeding and turned to the Constitutional Court with a request for preliminary ruling. The Constitutional Court held, that mandatory mask wearing served an important social purpose, and meant a strong necessity during the public health emergency, while reasonable medical exceptions were also provided. Therefore, the impugned regulation was constitutional.	https://www.stradalex.lu/fr/slu_src_publ_leg_mema/toc/leg_lu_mema_202303_114/doc/mema_etat-leg-acc-2023-03-03-a114-jo
