Masks help preventing spread, they help a little to stop you from catching it but it's more about spread prevention, refusing to wear one because YOU'LL be okay is selfish.

I won't shame you for it, but I am making you aware that you're being selfish.

also helps to slow mutations. more spread means more generations of mutable virus.

Well I assumed that wearing a mask and/or staying home if you actually have covid is a given, but I guess with some people's jobs that's not exactly the case.

I'll repeat what has been said about COVID consistently on all news sources across the globe.

You can be asymptomatic, not knowing you have it, and spread it. Wearing a mask around people that are vulnerable protects them even if you feel okay.
