Or lick their hands when handling money

I tried explaining universal precautions to a pastor of a church I was attending, and pointed out that there is a Christian commandment to love one's neighbor that overrides one's personal desires. He could not dispute my points, but he also didn't do anything to implement safety procedures.

Guess who left the church after the unsurprising COVID outbreak?

I realize a lot of people here aren't believers, but my point is that even within the context of religion or common wisdom, masks make sense.

There's been a lot of talk lately about how decades of lead in gasoline, pipes, and in other places likely damaged generations of people's ability to reason. I'm sincerely beginning to think this is a bigger problem than we'll ever truly know.
