I never wear a mask, because I am protected by my lucky green socks and holy amulet, which have kept me in excellent health since 1975. Government promotion of fear for two years kept people masked, and the fear lingers on. Politicians are ruled by polls, and the less rational citizens are still afraid, and demand useless masks as a comfort, and so the farce continues. People wear masks to fit in, rather than using their brains to evaluate the efficacy of tissue paper to block viruses, and hence rejecting their use.
