It's OK to stand in queue for hours waiting for the shops to get the sales, following Christmas, and no one gets covid. So, why do we need the distance? Because if you break the rules, people will find out that you don't need face mask, you don't need the distance, which means you don't need the vaccine. This is what the Controlers don't want you to find out - that the whole thing is a hoax!
No, the masks reduce the spread, the distance further reduce the spread helping the masks do their job more efficiently, don't believe everything a government controlled news outlet tells you. Just because fox says "MaSk No WoRk" doesn't mean the mask doesn't work. Even Bill Nye the science guy explains how masks work, and why they work.
Just like when CNN says insert whatever crazy lie CNN wants you to believe doesn't make it true. Listen to the experts in the field, listen to the scientist who are all saying masks work, and covid is a very much real thing.
