We absolutely must start setting an example and teaching others that getting criticized won't kill them. Learning to manage your own emotions in the face of criticism and rejection is a crucial life skill which has been lost, especially among the younger generations. Also, look at who is doing the criticizing and shaming. I'm proud to make them upset and not bothered by it one bit. It's funny and I'm tired of pretending that it's not.

Unfortunately you doctors have it rough, your bottom line will suffer if you lose patient confidence. Or, I guess have to cater to the small fraction of us that use critical thinking.

If people were convinced to wear masks, they can be convinced wearing them is unhealthy and not a good idea. It is sad, but people are easily manipulated.
