It's quite logical for older people, especially with certain health problems, to be afraid of this virus. The best way to be safe for us is to avoid other people, especially indoors, mask or no mask.

People under 50 have a death rate from this virus less than ordinary flu. So it's logical for them not to be afraid.

The whole mask fiasco started when health authorities first told us they don't work, then switched stance after the peak of pandemic had already been reached. Then, many of the same health authorities blessed massive protests, while still enforcing rules for the rest of us.
