If your medical condition is so severe that catching a flu type virus can kill you, you don't need to be out and about.

If you are out and about, I assume you have the immune system to combat the virus or that you don't care about your life.

You do realize that some people "out and about" may not want to get the virus not because their immune system can't combat the virus but because they don't want to bring it home to their vulnerable family members that live with them (that are staying at home).

If I'm living with someone who can die from catching the virus, then I'm either not staying with them, or I'm not going out (while utilizing technology to accommodate my/our needs during the pandemic).

I'm certainly not betting a loved one's life on a piece of cloth over someone else's face.

Perhaps they shouldn’t be out and about then. And you do realize that most of the masks being worn do nothing to stop the spread of the virus right? And they just cause people to touch their faces more and collect droplets which could contain the virus.
