Should there be a Covid waiver?
Should we create a waiver for the anti maskers to sign? This way, if or when they get sick, we can legally refuse medical care to them and any of their family members. And their demise should be televised.

That would work if they were only endangering their own lives. But they aren't. One person without a mask can infect many others -- even if they are wearing masks.

The only "waiver" is if you decide to go live in the woods and never have any contact with a person who does NOT want to be infected. Your mask protects everyone else, since over half of Covid cases have been traced to transmission by asymptomatic carriers.
I agree that people choosing to engage in behavior that is risky TO THEMSELVES should face heightened consequences, as a burden to society, but refusing to wear a mask in public, when within "range" of anyone else, increasing THEIR risk of sickness or death, is just irresponsible and pathetic. There should be ways to catch and isolate, if not also punish, such disrespectful morons.

Your mask protects me. I'm not in favor of giving you a waiver regardless of you willing to risk your own life.

Ok, but then you have to include sky divers, race car drivers, scuba, mountian climbers, and all who do risky things.
