Music is not prohibited, the concentration of people is prohibited, in the framework that we already know of social distancing. But we cannot make an absolute ban on listening to music on the beach, that would be absurd, “he explained. Lucas Windy, Secretary of Security of Pinamar, in dialogue with Infobae.
