We supposedly have numbers "skyrocketing" but hospitalizations and deaths are not scarily high which is actually fantastic news. The chances of dying in a car accident or from a lightning strike are low, too, but that doesn't mean that it isn't tragic when it happens. Nor does it mean that we should ban cars or being outdoors to prevent those deaths from happening. There is always going to be some unlucky person who is killed by lightning or even hit by a car while sitting on the safety of their living room sofa. Death is a part of life unfortunately. You don't stop living because you are afraid of dying. |

You forgot the most vocal group, #6: Do exactly what I want you to do and how I want you to act regardless of which of the 5 categories I fall within. AKA the be like me or you’re wrong group.

Not trying to go off topic here as this relates to personal risk/safety assessment. On a lark, I did a quick google search and found the following article:
"Despite low odds, experts warn that being struck by lightning is not worth the risk" - I think we would all agree that we don't want to get hit by lightning. But we might disagree as to what lengths we're willing to go to to avoid being potentially struck by lightning. |

Our economy needs to recover. I'm doing my part to help our economy recover and enjoy my life too. Win Win and hopefully there will be an effective vaccine soon so we can achieve herd immunity to stop this virus in its tracks.

When a masker enters a crowded building/venue they say: "It is your job to protect me and others from getting this virus". These are the type of people who would sue a store, see businesses shut down and demand strict contract tracing if they happened to somehow contract the virus. The non-maskers enter a crowded venue and immediately accept the risk and responsibility of doing so. If they get sick they'll stay home and recover like they do with any other virus. If their symptoms get severe enough they'll seek medical treatment like they do with any other virus. Personally, I would rather live with the anti-maskers any day of the week. |

This has never happened with any other virus, just the Coronavirus and somehow we have survived as a society. We have just completely kicked all common sense out the window with this one. The "experts" have been so all over the place with their predictions and recommendations that it's laughable. |

I'm a #4. But, it is nice to have the excuse for wearing a mask when carting someone around in my car that stinks (perfume of course).

Good point Mary! My niece, who is an RN, has been taking care of COVID 19 patients for months. From what she has described to me this virus is nothing they have ever seen. I will wear a mask to protect myself and others until it is safe to not do so. Gasping for breath until I die with no family present is something I would like to prevent for myself or anyone else. If our soldiers can fight the enemy it seems to me that wearing a mask isn't too much to ask as we fight COVID 19.

The strong possibility that a positive employee will not pass on the virus to restaurant patrons because the employee was wearing a mask is very comforting to me as a patron. Restaurant employees who are dealing with the unmasked public are more at risk and that is the difficult part of this issue. Any restaurant employee is there because they need to work, not because they are just looking for something to do. They put themselves at risk to earn a living. Sad but true.
