So in shortly, the reason why CZ in this situation, is lack of enforcement - either the lack of local control, and also probably only country in europe which dont have any kind of border control.

They seem to be enforcing it - they clearly felt the need to traumatize a child for life because her father was walking down an apparently empty street with a piece of paper over his mouth. They had him in a headlock, clearly in an attempt to help him breath better
As for masks, wear them all you want but here is a recent study published by the CDC from March 12th, 2021
https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/70/...mm7010e3-H.pdf
During March 1–December 31, 2020, state-issued mask mandates applied in 2,313 (73.6%) of the 3,142 U.S. counties. Mask mandates were associated with a 0.5 percentage point decrease (p = 0.02) in daily COVID-19 case growth rates 1–20 days after implementation and decreases of 1.1, 1.5, 1.7, and 1.8 percentage points 21–40, 41–60, 61–80, and 81–100 days, respectively, after implementation (p<0.01 for all) Mask mandates were associated with a 0.7 percentage point decrease (p = 0.03) in daily COVID-19 death growth rates 1–20 days after implementation and decreases of 1.0, 1.4, 1.6, and 1.9 percentage points 21–40, 41–60, 61–80, and 81–100 days, respectively, after implementation (p<0.01 for all).
Daily case and death growth rates before implementation of mask mandates were not statistically different from the reference period
The impact of masks on COVID growth rates is 1.32%, and realistically much lower then that.
