I was done being scared of the virus in April when I saw all the lies and scams piling up. I've been back to normal life as much as possible. Most of my family and friends are the same way. That includes some who are over 60 years old. On the list of things I worry about, coronavirus is not even on the top 10. As soon as the restrictions are lifted, I will return to every normal activity. I still obey the law, and I wear a mask around others who feel fear, because I respect them as people and want them to feel comfortable around me. I understand that some people feel hatred or resentment towards me because of my lack of fear of coronavirus, but I do not reciprocate their feelings.

Nothing says 'fearless' like taking 'risks' where you're safe, but other people are endangered.

You shouldn’t wear masks to “make people feel comfortable”. You should wear masks because even asymptomatic people can spread the disease. You could unknowingly catch and help spread the disease to someone who is vulnerable. Someone you might not even know. You’re right not to fear COVID for yourself; statistics support that view. But common, non-medical masks are not for personal safety. They’re for preventing community spread.
