The good news is that studies have shown masks aren't all that effective so no one needs to worry about this anymore. If you want to wear a mask, ok, if you don't want to wear a mask, ok. Also, COVID mortality is way down. Any concerns about masks or COVID can be relegated to statistical insignificance when it comes to trying to control other people's behavior.
Effective at what though? I thought the main point of wearing a mask was that you were less likely to spread your sickness to others, especially if you weren't symptomatic yet.
Is it so effective that you need to be concerned if other people are wearing a mask? Also, that would be quite a different concern than this submission is hinting at.
The main point to wearing a mask is so you don't cough and spit over everything and everyone. They are meant to mitigate the spread of the virus. It was never going to stop it.
Please. Stop trying to take away my God-given right to sneeze, cough, and spit all over everyone. And don't get me started on those glass "sneeze guards" at the buffet!
