So what is an appropriate amount of cases to go back to normal?


[flagged]


That's your choice but note that your choice is not based in science or statistics. Statistically if you're vaccinated you will not die. You won't even get severe Covid. That's even if you get Covid in the first place which would be very hard. If you want to wear a mask as a fashion statement or virtue signaling then that's fine.


Were you wearing a mask in 2019? Because influenza killed thousands of people that year, and we didn't have a 100% preventative vaccine.



Are you saying that you don't want to take any risk of dying of covid, but your odds of dying of the flu don't bother you?


I strongly suspect we are being trolled at this point.


Considering the vaccine now makes it less likely to die from Covid if infected than the flu, were you wearing a mask for decades before Covid too?
