The case for reasonable exemptions.

PLEASE DO NOT POLITICIZE.

So you feel like I should be pretty much locked away just because I can't wear a mask due to it inhibiting my ability to wear my oxygen.

Individual exceptions to mask-wearing will happen, of course.

You may wish to consult your doctor for a workaround so you can protect yourself with a mask while taking your oxygen.

I'm supposing your oxygen prescription indicates a medical condition. If so, then very likely you remain at greater risk of perishing from infection by the Chinese killer virus.
You will want to take steps to protect yourself. Let us know how it goes.

Your body your choice.

Selfish view for ignoring the risk to the public health from refusal of the vaccine to retard the Chinese killer virus. On a scale, the concern for the public health outweighs the personalistic stance.

Selfish to make a choice about my what drug goes into my body. Ok...i mask up when needed and obey all laws to keep from spreading. You dont know if i had the shot or not. I believe everyone has the right to choose. This is not China. I respect everyone's choice. Their bodies their choices.

I have a micro-managing supervisor at work. I pulled my mask down to my chin and helped myself to a cup of water. The supervisor came over and told me to put my mask back on.
I took my mask off and poked a hole in it with my pen. Then I put the mask back on and finished my cup of water. Yes it was messy but I was left alone.
I can only imagine if I was drinking a milk shake and got to the very end.

Please don’t try to politicize this thread!

Yes they do and thats their choice. Again you have no right telling someone what to do with their body as adults as long as they are not hurting anyone. You can tell them the risk factors and offer help but then choice is theirs. IMO...I have friends weithvacvine and friends without. I love them all the same. Most have already got the virus and had a little cold for a few days and believe they have they antibodies which is stronger than the vaccine. I dont judge any of their choices. Divide and conquer is the agenda. Less than 1% of country has got the virus but we destroy the countries economy over it. If you want to stay in and hide from virus i welcome that and if you want to socialize I dont judge that either. You want wear a mask your choice or maskless im fine with that also. Just ask one question, if the vaccine works and you have it why are you still scared. Just as many people with vaccine if not more are catching the virus...hmm...remember just my thoughts. Am I right I dont know but soon the facts wont be hidden by gov't and we may all see we were fooled.

You definitely can not smoke where ever you want.

And it has already started that if you can't show proof

that you have been vaccinated you can't enter restaurants

or go to some sports events and businesses won't hire you

if you are not vaccinated to name a few.

I have consulted with my Dr who has recommended I maintain already established social distancing guidelines which I have been.
You are correct in the assumption that I have a medical condition that requires caution I have COPD .
My reply was to the comment saying that if you can't wear a mask you shouldn't be allowed out.
Basically they are saying to lock me up because I can't wear a mask to make them feel better.

I too have COPD and am on Oxygen. I don't like wearing the mask but I do when it's required. I'm on a nasal cannula and it doesn't interfere with my Oxygen.

You should not be locked away. But for your protection, with severe lung disease, you should be wearing N95 mask over your oxygen source.
