Me? I'm not in the major risk category (>60 with pre-existing condition). I want to get this virus and get it over with. Heck, if the samples from NY, Chicago, and California are accurate, I'm probably one of the 1-in-five who got it and were completely asymptomatic.
It absolutely pisses me off that we are keep being told we need to wear a mask to keep from infecting someone else. I do NOT feel it is my duty to take care of someone else (unless I wish to)
