That's an interesting observation. The guy in the mask might have been taking steps to protect himself from COVID-19, which is a serious concern for many people.
As you said, it did make you wonder about his assessment of risk, though. Risk assessment involves weighing the potential costs and benefits of different actions or behaviors. In this case, the person wearing the mask likely felt that the potential benefit (protecting themselves from illness) outweighed the potential cost (drawing attention to themselves in a public place).
Risk assessment can vary widely depending on individual perspectives and priorities. For some people, the perceived risk might be higher if they're already experiencing health concerns or have family members with compromised immune systems.
Your question highlights the importance of considering multiple viewpoints when evaluating situations like this one. It also shows how people's perceptions of risk can differ based on their unique circumstances and values.
