Left the gym yesterday and saw a guy running on a side street by himself wearing a mask. I rolled down my window and yelled at the little guy to take his fucking mask off. Weak moment for me but I am over this shit.
I haven't yelled at anyone for wearing a mask outside when alone, but I sure have been tempted. We call it "weak-minded" in my household whenever we see someone outside with a mask on by their lonesome. But, I believe in freedom - even if their choice makes them look silly.
I think the idea of requiring healthy people to wear masks partly comes from the false narrative about asymptomatic transmission. I trust Dr. Peter McCullough's thought that the asymptomatic spread of any respiratory infection is a farce. It has never happened in the history of medicine prior to COVID-19, nor after. If you recall, this false narrative was part of the scare tactics used to shut down the economy. The reality is "asymptomatic spread" is simply when a person fakes being well, when in fact they have symptoms (sore throat, fever, runny nose, body aches, etc.), then gets someone sick.
If there is one good outcome from the pandemic, it is that people are doing a better job of staying home when they are sick. Healthy people don't need to stay home and quarantine. People who don't feel well are the ones who should stay home till they get better. I know this is basic common sense. But common sense isn't so common anymore.
