On the one hand, government mandates are always counterproductive. On the other hand, potentially asymptomatic people walking around unmasked can literally kill you by breathing.
covid = fraud, IFR for people below 70 = 0,05%, driving a car is more dangerous.
Important mathematical/epidemiological nit: Breathing next to someone who almost died in a car accident does not cause you to also almost die in a car accident.
Corona is just another kind of flu, no need to get all scared about it. And again, the risk of participating in trafic is many times higher, so actually, youo are wrong.
they just happen to have the same kind of death rate and cause the same kind of problems. I agree that they are not the same though, one is made in a lab the other is from nature
IFR for influenza is ~0.1% broadly across age groups. IFR for COVID-19 varies dramatically from 0.003% for under-19, up to 5.4% among people in their 70s
There is also plenty enough data to be concerned about long-lasting organ damage even in asymptomatic otherwise-healthy people. Your heart, brain and gut all really don't need trauma.
