Nobody is telling you to be afraid of the virus. It's about minimizing the risk of transmission. But yeah, some people exaggerate their prevention measures.
What a shame that transmission is not at all controlled by either wearing a soggy germladen face rag nor by having the injection, which is basically just a novel drug to maybe reduce symptoms ( if you are one of the very few to even get any).
I feel I have to enlighten those that either don't understand the science behind it or believe the wrong thing behind their decisions.
I am like a Terrier, I won't stop.
Being a sucker is a choice but I don't take advice from one, nor do I want to be discriminated against by those who have no idea what they are talking about.
I do have relevant scientific experience, so I won't listen to my idiot neighbour and just suck it up.
That's not how we got out of caves.
I have very shocking, easy to understand counter arguments they can't win against. They can ignore them, but they WILL hear them. Maybe they will niggle away at them slowly as they hear more and more.
It's accumulative.

I'm not the one who makes you decide to stay at home. You're invited to join whenever you feel like it and I keep my distance if that's what you want.
You are the one imposing on my right to leave my house and live.
I don't believe that's a smart way to handle it.

But that's not what this is about. This is about responsible adults making their own choices.
You equate that with crime. Think about that.
A violation of this subsection is a crime of the second degree if it occurs during a declared period of national, State or county emergency. The actor shall be strictly liable upon proof that the crime occurred, in fact, during a declared period of national, State or county emergency. It shall not be a defense that the actor did not know that there was a declared period of emergency at the time the crime occurred.

Masks are the same. They minimize spread, they mitigate the risk. That's it.

The mask is not magic, you are the one who believed it would stop the virus and then you found it didn't work that way.
The mask is one of many elements that work together to prevent spreading of the virus but it wasn't suppose to stop it like a magic charm.
Now, if you don't like the mask, the only option you have is staying away from people who that don't desire cross
contamination.
The vaccine...., that's another story. With all the bad stories about it, I started to think that could be just a placebo.

It's about I decide what risk I want to take or not and for what.
No because if you expose yourself, get infected and then walk around, you are putting at risk other people's health. You have no right to do that.
