I think both you & GP share many similarities, the main difference being your perceived risk of COVID-19.
GP acknowledges the disease but concludes that, due to the high chance of survival, mandates are unwarranted.
You acknowledge the 99% chance of survival but conclude that, due to the high (and still growing) number of deaths, civic duty is needed.
At which point would GP perceive "people's freedom" as "self centered selfishness"?
At which point would you perceive "civic duty" as "shameless propaganda"?
