Masking during a pandemic is never just about individual risk. Collective action has an exponential effect on prevalence, so the real risk goes down by far more than 5%.
Not taking action to reduce risk of illness or death is irrational.

There's a trade-off between doing things you enjoy (or don't enjoy) and the risk of death, and it's a personal trade-off, not something that can be assessed rationally.
Not taking action to reduce risk of illness or death is irrational.
