[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Flying home to DC, my son was seated next to a lady who was clearly sick and complaining to her husband about how awful she felt. He was not entirely sympathetic and muttered something about having COVID himself. Neither husband nor wife were wearing a mask on the packed flight. I don’t get it. [/quote]

Because masks are hot and uncomfortable. What's not to get?[/quote]

Then do not fly when sick, if you cannot wear a mask.  Have a little compassion and concern for others around you. Really not that difficult to do or understand.

I don't get it. If you're worried about getting sick, why don't you wear an N95 respirator? Why do you care what other people do? [/quote]

I do wear a KN95 or N95 on planes.  However, I would be better protected if everyone did and the air was properly filtered.  You are sitting in a tiny plane with 200+ people where everyone is sitting packed in next to others (3-5 in a row together)---tight quarters with crappy air filtration.  Why do you feel it's so important to NOT mask when you are visibly ill?  How can you go thru life being so self centered and not caring a bit about others around you?

So you don't trust N95s. Got it.[/quote]

Apparently you are not smart enough to understand simple science.  Masks work.  However, if everyone around you is maskless, then there is a chance you can still get covid.  So masks work better the more people who are wearing them.  Simple to understand.  [/quote]

That's the risk you're taking if you go around other people. There is no way to eliminate any chance to get Covid. Get a grip.[/quote]

"There is no way to eliminate any chance to get Covid" so throw all your chances of minimizing risk/damage to the wind and say fsck it!!

Clown, I'm not going to participate in your circus theater with my mask costume so your anxiety is minimized.[/quote]
