Then Its for them to decide that. They may very well knew and accept the what you called "deleterious" effect.



It is not just for them to decide that. They are in a risk group and therefore get infected more easily and spread the infection more easily. It is in their and all our best interest for them to stay home.


>It is not just for them to decide that

So you get to decide it for them ?

>It is in their

This is the issue, you assume its their interest.


In interests of the public health during an emergency, yes, society gets to decide. You rights end where your neighbor's nose begins.


Right, society eventually get to decide, which society is it? The winner get to decide. Both side are part of the society. Both side fight for their interest. The against mask side will fight for its interest, just like the pro mask people fight for their interest.

>You rights end where your neighbor's nose begins

It goes both ways when you decide to force people who don't want to wear mask to wear mask.


So now you're talking about "want". Before you were talking about "can't". So which is it? Because if it's just "want", that's not people interested in living in a society.


>Because if it's just "want", that's not people interested in living in a society

Agree, people who don't want to wear mask certainly not interested in living in a society where they are forced to wear it against their will, thats why they fight for their interest just like the pro mask people fight for their interest to live in a society that they want.
