The societal impacts of COVID-19

How terribly compliant of you

I'm not in the defiant group. I wear a mask all day, doesn't bother me to wear one at the store. The testing is as much for my coworkers as myself. The asshats I work for would let me return with only a doctor's note.

Now, being told I have to use PTO, when they sent me home? That's where you'll see the defiance, aka grievance.

I'm not in the defiant group.

I'm not defiant, I just refuse to do something that does absolutely nothing to protect myself from the Kung Flu. If I had to wear one for work as a condition of employment, that would be different, but I don't. I'm not sick and I keep my distance from people I don't know.

I was just contrasting Lost's characterization of my actions as "compliant" as though he expects us all to be defiant. I totally understand both sides, I just don't care to pick that battle. Not that important to me. If it is to others, that's cool too.

Got it. Every individual's got a different take.

Well, it's not going to give you any extra protection if you're keeping your distance from people. But is that always possible? And also there's evidence that it spreads through aerosol that lingers in the air.

And also if there's a general rule for wearing masks then you're less likely to get covid from someone in your vicinity that is wearing a mask. You can still have covid and not have any symptoms i.e not be aware that you're sick

I think you will find the evidence out there that a mask can help protect you....

If the CDC recommends a mask, what makes some people believe that they are smarter than them :
