There is an innumerable amount of fallacies that have constantly been repeated throughout this whole "Pandemic"; I'll list a few if you are interested at all in logic ... but ... odds are you will repeat the same errors in the rejection of this reply. 2) Appeal to Common Belief - As noted above you believe what the "experts" have said although other experts just as qualified have appealed to the real scientific method and yet are ignored - because they do not carry the clout that the others have. 3) Appeal to Consequences - It's amazing to me that Government types makes these horrific errors in logic and then expect everyone to comply merely because they say the sky is falling. I would appeal to your basic job: to protect those rights established by ancestors that had to fight to the death just to get them. To make mandatory one thing by deserting your basic responsibility of upholding that which would be denied by such a mandate is the most illogical and the most consequential of all. I doubt anyone elected you (if such things as elections really exist) to be represented by you to be their Master of their bodies.

As with all conclusions, check your premises. You have assumed the premise that face masks work is correct. I see that as the weakest element in your discussion and, therefore, the easiest to attack. |

I would not call it a Fallacy. More like voicing a concern and suggesting a solution. As far as whether mask works or if some people are more vulnerable to covid require fact checking. |

This looks good to me, logically speaking. I didn't bother with fact-checking claims/assumptions (I assume you did that legwork). |
