No, we have to do what is best for society not your ego.

If you are wearing a mask, you are protected (or so you seem to believe). Why isn't that good enough?
No one should be shamed for wearing a mask if they feel it's best for them. Others shouldn't be shamed if they don't feel the need to. That's the core issue.

Covid isn’t the only problem in peoples lives. For many it might not even be the top 10 or even 50. It isn’t society’s problem to protect those who are scared.

Mandates are not because of the monster under your bed lol. There is nothing scary about covid anymore we are just mitigating the effect it has on a functioning society. I don't care about you, do whatever you want, but I care about you getting covid when I must cover your on call. The sickness absence rate is sky high and I don’t want to get a heavier workload just because I act responsible and you do not.

lol - it's a highly contagious airborne virus. It can be carried and spread by animals - you going to get mad at all the animals for not wearing masks too?
Pro tip for a happier life - worry about what you can control and not about what others are doing or thinking that might offend you. Not only will you be happier, but so will everyone else around you :)
