"I refuse to wear a mask and protect others from getting my disease, because I have personal responsibility!"
Ok.
So you're a lifelong mask wearer, are you? Every time you get the sniffles you wear a mask, including alone in your own vehicle?
No, right on the face of it, everything you're saying is absurd. I'm not personally responsible for your health. If you go into a public place and choose to get within spitting distance of someone, you're ALWAYS taking a risk you may catch something.
You do not mitigate such risks by demanding others change their life or habits. You mitigate your risk by changing your OWN life and habits.
I don't care one way or another about masks, frankly. Those who wish to wear them should, those who don't wish to shouldn't. EVERYONE should decide for themselves what level of risk they're willing to expose themselves to.
I don't need to mask myself if I go for a jog to protect random people in the park. The random people in the park can either stay off the jogging trail, give me space when I pass by or behave normally. What THEY do is dependent on THEMSELVES. THEY have personal responsibility for their OWN lives. Their health is not my problem. Nor is mine theirs.
