Exactly! If you’ve been exposed to the virus, it makes a ton of sense.
When I last got COVID, I:
self-quarantined as much as possible, keeping as much distance as I could
wore a surgical mask (best mask I had) until I was able to get an N95 mask (about a day)
wore the N95 mask whenever I was anywhere near anyone until I was able to effectively quarantine
But that’s not an everyday thing. Once I had confirmed I was negative, I stopped wearing the mask in public. There’s no need, I’m healthy and I’m around other healthy people. I’m not going to wear a mask out of fear of what might be out there, I’ll wear it when I’m near people who are at-risk or when asked. I’m not going to wear it 24/7 though.

Nobody’s asking you to wear it 24/7. They’re just asking you to wear it when you’re around people. It really isn’t hard. I’ve been doing it for years.
