When will we stop wearing masks?
Now that vaccines are out, why do we still have to wear masks? I know that we have to vaccinate a certain percentage of the population to achieve herd immunity, so why still wear masks? I'm guessing the reason is because of all the anti-vaxxers. I'm not an anti-masker or anything, but I feel that anti-vaxxers are the reason why this pandemic will not end. If we only get to vaccinate a certain amount of people, then we'd achieve herd immunity and, therefore, no need to wear masks or social distance and everything's back to normal. The problem is that there is a segment of the population who believes that this is one big conspiracy (i.e. the anti-vaxxers) and they'll refuse to get vaccinated so society would achieve herd immunity. In all honesty, when are we going to stop wearing these masks?

No, it's not because of the anti-vaxxers. There just are not that many of them. Now, there are some who aren't anti-vax, but they are skeptical of the new covid vaccines, or unwilling to take a vaccine tainted by abortion, which all the covid vaccines are, so far. Still, not that many people, because most believe that this is a deadly pandemic.
The reason we might end up wearing masks for a long time is that the government and other power-hungry people want to ensure that people are obedient. Obedience in the area of mask-wearing is likely to become habitual obedience. I'm for obeying the law of course, except for unjust laws.

As soon as we can guarantee that no one will ever get sick again.

The problem is that when people are vaccinated, they may still carry the virus, while they themselves are protected, they may still spread the virus to others. There is such a possibility and my country's physicians are still investigating.
