Imagine permanent impairment of taste and smell. That would suck.
Your lack of information is truly sad. First of all everybody will eventually get the virus. The shutdowns are meant to slow the spread not stop it completely. So you will get it wether you wear a mask or not. Desantis has taken the best strategy. Let business be open. If you want to go out then go if not stay home. Don't live in fear because that will weaken your immune system through stress. Best advice is to strengthen your immune system and keep it moving.
Proper mask use and reasonable distancing (not packing into venues like theaters and churches and big family reunions funerals weddings etc...) reduces the rate of spread so much that it would take a long time for everybody to get it. Look at places like Taiwan and Japan. I am healthy and middle aged. It has a 1/1,000 to 1/10,000 chance of really laying me low, killing me, or doing permanent damage if I catch it. That is a hell of a lot more dangerous than the flu. I am not living in fear. I am headed out the door to do an interval workout on the lagoon in the dark in 48 degree temp with a brisk NW wind. But I am not stupid about a virus.
