Why are we contributing to the fear of something that most of us have a greater chance to be struck by lightening than to die from? I’ve had to stop listening to several ‘conservative’ talk shows because they are promoting wearing masks for ‘common sense’. reasons. Am I missing something? I get it, we don’t want to be jerks, or in some cases get tased. Some of us work for companies that require them, but given the choice why on earth would anyone with a brain choose to do this?
