I do not find the evidence that Sweden did it better than the rest of the world, as their death rate was higher than ours per populations. (today's cumulative numbers for Norway are 9,444, and Denmark is 14,586, while Sweeden is 81,967 but the good news is that they are ALL declining - but not the USA). I am glad Alaska is requiring masks but to me this is not about personal freedoms, it is a question of do I have a "right" to endanger anyone else? For my sake I do hope others wear a mask, and I appreciate that FAs have less interactions with service for me now but, that is for their sakes, not just mine. I really hope our entire country will be able to find a way back to normal this year, but I am afraid that I might not like what the new normal will look like.
