Agree or disagree. Does the subject of masks (or anything ftm) really need to be brought up dozens of times a day? The horse is dead, please just walk away and leave its poor mutilated carcass for the worms. People get it, you may or may not agree with the conclusions they came up with and that doesn't necessarily make anyone right or wrong. But they get it.
You do not have to click on any thread that mentions masks or any other subject for that matter. That is your totally your choice.

Therefore I cannot understand why government spends millions or billions of dollars to fight Covid, trillions to help with economy due to Covid and nothing for N 95 masks to be worn (and taught how to be worn) by the vulnerable, elderly population. Where is the logic in that?

So, please wear a mask year round. What happens every fall? The seasonal flu! Contagious! If you take your mask off ever, then you are a hypocrite. Plain and simple.

#1 & #2 tells me you don’t live in The Villages as you just described most Villagers and would not be able to go outside without breaking rules #1 & 2. # 3 shows you are obviously Healthy and in great shape. Unfortunately #’s 1-3 seems you place a high value on yourself and little on others. Who do you plan to hang around with when you become “old people”?

The decision to not recommend mask wearing is very unpopular with me. Wearing a mask or not wearing a mask is a matter of public health. It has absolutely nothing to do with politics for me but it seems politics has become the divisive factor for many people.
I too could go mask-less, look tougher/more manly and show I don't care about anyone else except myself, if I could just ensure that every single person that came within a 100 yards of me were tested every day...and they were made to wear masks.

Do some men really consider not wearing masks as manly? Not protecting vulnerable people as manly? Vanity as a manly trait? Obviously my definition of manly must be very different.
