Hysterical overreaction to a mild flu virus. So mild that most people who get it never even know it. No symptoms = no transmission. Nobody ever needed a mask.

Huge communist control scheme to get people used to the false notion that govt gets to dictate to you what you must wear, when you must hide your identity, muffle your speech and restrict your breathing, and what you must have injected inside your body to cope with the virus they've deliberately inflicted on you.
