Personally I don't really believe in the efficiency of masks. Vaccination and social distancing do the trick. I wore a mask when it was mandatory (and only where it was mandatory), because I didn't want to be bothered for disobeying. But I'm not going to wear it of my own free will.
As much as I can tell, most people in my country share this attitude. The moment the mask mandate was lifted, most discarded their masks immediately.
I'm not saying we're necessarily right. Perhaps masks do protect from viruses, at least to an extent. Still, I believe that Covid has come to stay, like flu, and I for one don't want to wear a mask for years or decades to come.
