[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My feelings are still if you are worried about getting sick then YOU have to protect yourself. [/quote]

I think this has been the key all along.  I had a medically  fragile child.  I never could rely on others to protect him.[/quote]

Yes, but wouldn't it have been nice if others were willing to do something so simple as wear a mask to help keep these medically fragile people safe.   Not that difficult to wear a mask while at grocery store or target for 20 mins.  It would protect yourself, the workers, the customers, and ultimately everyone who is there who might have a medically fragile person in their lives.

Those people should wear a mask to protect that person in their lives. Masks do work, right?

Even if you did get everyone to mask, you would move on to not enough masks (two is better than one) or not wearing them correctly. That's how we know you have a medical anxiety.[/quote]

Science shows that masks work better if everyone wears them.  I do wear them whenever in an inside setting with large crowds, grocery stores, etc.  I do dine out and enjoy life.  But I take precautions that are easy to do.

Also, wanting to not get long covid or any effects from multiple covid infections is not medical anxiety.  I've seen what one case of covid, prevax did to my otherwise very healthy teen.  And their case was only moderate and has improved over time.  But they still have issues that are obviously caused by covid infection.  So yeah, I'd prefer not to do permanent damage to myself or my family if we can avoid it thru simple actions.  [/quote]
