It's a numbers game. Rules don't need to be 100% consistent. You just need enough restrictions to make the chance of transmission lower.

Yeah, I've another number game... how many government officials and top grade functionary will I have to guillotine before they take their filthy mitts off my basic freedoms and stop striving to make my life unpleasant.

In my experience lying in bed with high fever is a lot more unpleasant than wearing a mask in the supermarket.

In my experience having to send a relative to the crematorium without a service or the opportunity to come together as a family is worse than having to wear a mask for 20mins at the supermarket.

Anyway, a mask makes me look both distinguished and mysterious...

I hear people say "Who was that masked man?" as I stride past...

wait till there arises a fashion of malefactors attacking banks and whatever else and benefitting from the element of surprise, because they were masked like responsible citizens...

There is a large number of people whose appearance is improved by a mask...

I'm finding my washable fabric mask quite comfortable, but then I only wear it entering a shop or supermarket, so it would not be greater than 30 minutes or so. I probably wouldn't like wearing one all day...
