Hiking in the woods is now a pleasure, so get used to masks because they are here to stay. Freedom is a matter of perspective.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Unless you can &amp;quot;prove&amp;quot; you have followed the directives you will be shut out of many activities. &amp;nbsp;Individuals with children will give up since it will be hard on their children if the family is punished for one person&amp;#39;s refusal as the children will be ostracized and the holdouts &amp;nbsp;will be forced to give in.&lt;/p&gt;

What about the *fully recovered* people , the ones that were infected with the virus and have now recovered? Those people aren&amp;#39;t mentioned at all!!! And if people want to wear a mask why do others care about that? It&amp;#39;s none of their business.&lt;/p&gt;

I see masked individuals outside in the park or driving along in their car or in shops. Some younger female mask wearers take pride in their fashion masks. Others still wear the flimsy NHS issue of which many are thrown away and now present a new source of litter and environmental pollution. &amp;nbsp;The elderly and severely obese present a particularly harrowing image of slavish compliance and uninformed acceptance of the official narrative as they struggle with their breathing, their shopping and their movement. Clearly the face covering has become an ugly symbol of herd mentality. Where the shepherd or the rancher used his dogs to keep the sheep and cattle in order, a screen serves the same purpose as a &amp;nbsp;powerful method of mind control.&lt;/p&gt;
