That is where government SHOULD (?) step in and mandate it for everyone's safety. That is the main purpose of government.

Also IF (?) over 30% of the people do NOT take the vaccine, then the COVID-19 will remain with us for all time. That would require that masking and all the other problems would NEVER go away. That would NOT be a good future. That future would not "be so bright that anyone would have to wear sunglasses"! To me, there are MANY as yet UNRESOLVED issues.
I guess you would consider me one of those "selfish people". I've been a huge propoent of mask wearing and social distancing since this pandemic began back in early March. My stance remains that once I am immune after receive my second shot and waiting the proper amount of time for my immunity to kick in, I will not wear a mask anymore. I refuse to protect anti-vaxxers who do not take the small risk that I will take when I get vaccinated. The anti-vaxxers will just have to protect themselves in any way they can.

To those who can not take the vaccine for medical reasons, I'm sorry but I still will not protect you by wearing a mask. That you will have to do on your own. You will just have to continue to wear a mask, stay away from crowds and keep your distance from others. Also, do not touch your face and wash your hands frequently.
