The issue is, your right to not wear a mask doesn’t override my right to not be infected by you. You can thump your chest and stomp your feet all you want.

The govt does have the duty to protect citizens in such situations. But any such actions must be temporary, and effective.

@Canndue
Being a citizens of concern. Health and the natural environment comes first. This UNjustice system handling of the covid, (where I know our children will do much better job next time) is not good enough . I only wear a mask very limitedly for respect of others differences who are over obedient to corperatism. My studies show the mask is more harmful than the covid.

That self-centered way of thinking has killed a half a million people in the US. Congratulations! Why not go and have drinks with all of your friends, then go to the local care homes and explain to them that their lives don't matter. Perhaps you could even get tshirts printed with "Fuck you" in huge letters. Wearing a mask DOES NOT affect your oxygen levels. I proved this with an O2 meter. Want life to return to normal? STOP SPREADING COVID-19

@MizJ

I do my best not to let covid world order effect my well being. Not stoping you from anything. Not being selfish, just being self serve first, so I can serve and help others better.

That is not the same. Are we going to closed down everyone and thing over every nasty virus that comes along?
Government and corporations would love that, take it to higher levels for their club and we are not in it.

@Castlepaloma You are right. Seat belts and helmets are to protect you. Face masks are to protect others.

@Canndue Protection from masks goes both ways, thus my frustration at people being selfish and childish about killing and sickening those in their communities.

@Canndue, @Castlepaloma Yet I have spent more than a half century on this planet and this is the first time I have seen widespread lockdowns.
