Wearing a mask in the days of COVID-13 has become so politicized that we sometimes lose sight of the reasons why people do or don’t. There seem to be two distinct sides to this issue. Here are my observations.
Why people mask:
1. To avoid/reduce breathing COVID contaminated air;
2. To avoid/reduce contaminating others with COVID;
3. To keep my family as safe as possible;
4. Because it is required in my state/county/city and respectful.
Why people do not mask:
1. I live in a highly rural area and do not need to worry about COVID contaminated air;
2. I believe it is within my Constitutional Rights to choose and no one can ever tell me what to do;
3. I could care less about my family or anyone else;
4. I am an ignorant dumbass.
