Who is proud if putting people at risk? How do we reduce the risk? The largest study on masks called the Cochrane shows that masks did not help. There is plenty of medical evidence that vaccines do not stop one from getting or spreading Covid but may only decrease how sick one gets, and that's debatable when looking at the actual evidence. The people who question the policies honestly believe that the measured imposed were harmful and do not do it to be evil, mean, or selfish.
