In reply to the discussion: About people not wearing masks & losing their.."freedom." ? SEAT BELTS? [View all]Proud Liberal Dem
(24,355 posts)9. That's what these people don't get about this
Some of them online are like, "Wear a mask if YOU want to!" or "Stay home if YOU'RE scared!" They don't register that this is a bad virus that people can both catch AND transmit (and transmit even if they don't know they have it). I guess we will someday need to think about teaching basic epidemiology in school. I was mentioning to my wife too the other day, maybe mask-wearing while sick should become a norm in our country like it is in Asian countries. Just think how much healthier we might all be if we did that?
