The reason why I'm asking is because were supposed to write a argumentative text in eng class about masks, wether were for or against it and we need like pros and cons and i can't really decide since it's like 50/50

pro:

we are in a pandemic
easy to do
keeps other people safer
keeps yourself safe to a degree


con:
idk, gets a bit warm in summer?
the con list is bigger for people with sensitive skin and acne though

and expensive

my stance is that they're outrageously priced and expecting people with little money to basically choose between food, rent, and face masks is peak capitalism and i hope someone suffers from doing this to people later 
so like yes minus the price?
yeah of course, but it can't be priced like it is if it's mandatory, you cannot force less fortunate people to choose between starvation or isolation

No, people who support capitalism shouldn't have any issues with it

I mean basically the cons are the following


Cons

-People use them the wrong way, jesus, how hard can it be
-It's bad for the skin obviously
-Expensive
-You're judged and shamed hard in public if you're not wearing one e.g. economic reasons 
-Also around here people don't believe in corona so I'd pretty much be bullied in public if I used them (excluding public transportation and hospitals)
-capitalism

i think the only actual realistic con is their price, which should be regulated if there were to be a mandate.

Cons: 
Great intervention in human rights (probably the most important con) 
Some people can't wear them because of other medical problems
no subsidy from the government 

Pros:
Protects those around you and yourself from being infected, not just with covid - but other sicknesses as well
Can't really think of other pros tbh, but I'm still pro masks tho

I feel like they should only be used in a way it will be useful (like here it's only mandatory to use them in public transport, or for grocery shopping etc.) and this I feel is okay, because it's a minor part of a persons personal life that's affected... It's not a requirement that the masks are a different type, all that is needed is that they cover mouth and nose, which means that there's lots of options if you can't afford to buy single use ones. 

However I don't believe in the use of masks for other activities such as outdoor walking, and just minding your own business, if there's not a "real" danger of being infected. (which there isn't here at the moment), I could see this in places where the infection is rapidly increasing, and people get together in larger groups. Like the intervention need to be proportional to the actual situation. 

Don't know if this made sense at all

every time I see this argument from someone in the states, and then they're asked about what that condition is, they say "its against HIPPA to tell you" so I really wonder if there is such a thing
I really don't think there is?

U don't think there is any illness at all that can make it hard or impossibe to wear masks
