To some extent I agree. I underestimated the extent to which people would go along with this crap though. When the couf first started I was willing to give mask wearing a try and we tried to stay away from my elderly family but then I saw the data and... the differences are negligible between masking/shutdown areas and areas that did very little. But I had to look for that data. Had to come here and be on some kind of watch list probably.
