 I mean, you do you, but I'd rather have the minor inconvenience of breathing through a mask and save myself an illness than take a 1 in 4 chance of having impaired lung function a year later. 

“At 1 year of follow-up, 25% of the 349 participants had impaired lung function, including 11%, 22%, and 48% of those with mild, moderate, or severe/critical COVID-19, respectively.”

If you've heard #COVID19 is just like the flu, you were misinformed. Be a bit safer, please.

 A mask doesn't save yourself from an illness. It just reduce the spread rate of the disease. 

Jeez @Jeff "never puts away anything, especially oven mi... are you ok with this misinformation?
I thought quarantining and keeping distance was the best way to stay away from the disease.
