This is the reason for the change in recommendations. It is an action of the individual to help protect others. It is possible as more is learned the guidance will change. That’s how it is supposed to work.

You have the right not to participate.

No sarcasm at all. Had my car serviced at at a local shop today, not one person wearing a mask. There is no evidence at all, and that’s a problem. Quantify for me what the risks are if you wear a mask and if you don’t. . . . You can’t because there is none.
