Shouldn't it be that the people with fragile immune systems have the freedom, themselves, to take what they consider necessary precautions while everyone else is free to do the same. Should I be required to alter my choices to make you feel safer (the general, not specifically you). If you need special precautions, upon who is it incumbent to do so?

No it isn't. Its simply risk management. Much like choosing when to carry a firearm.
This stance ignores a lot of facts and makes tons of assumptions to reach a foregone conclusion.
And yours does not?
That's good for *YOU*...
What about the people that don't survive or are permanently screwed for life?
Is it 'OK' for them because it didn't happen to *YOU*?
Since immunity is partial, and relatively short term, is it 'OK' for someone to knowingly and willfully infect *YOU* over & over until you DO have serious or fatal reactions?
The two PhD researchers that contracted the virus the SECOND time didn't survive the SECOND infection,
And they had the very cutting edge treatments, best care...
No shoes, pants, shirt, mask... No Service is a VERY good plan.
I don't want to see you 'Junk', or catch YOUR disease!
Just wear cloths, including a mask and we are good... It's that easy...
If not, Tom Petty had it right, "What ever you're looking for, Don't come around here no more".

Wearing a mask is good for *YOU*. Don’t tell me what to wear and where to wear it. If you feel so unsafe, stay home. Im not. Stop telling everyone else how to live, last I checked the constitution didn’t mention anything about being obsolete during health crisis or people being scared. If you’re such high risk you believe it’ll kill you, you should stay home. There are ways to get groceries without ever leaving the house. Telling everyone else to live a certain way because it might hurt you is the reason we have a constitution to begin with. Nobody cares about you except you, just like nobody cares about me except me. It’s your job to ensure your safety not mine. You wanna wear a mask, wear it, don’t belittle those of us who don’t buy into the bs.

Yes like you can tell me to wear one in your home. I won’t visit said business if it’s required to wear a mask. I won’t visit your home if it’s required either.Clarify for me, do you believe a business has a right to tell you to wear one on their premises?
I think it would have been more effective if Fauci hadn't sent the mask script to re-write so many times and if they had said "Please wear masks" and accepted whatever results they got. The tendency of some in power to want to force compliance with their every whim is counterproductive, as is Karening
I'm reminded of the case where the police sent a total of five officers, two in a boat, to apprehend someone paddle boarding in a vast, empty stretch of open ocean off of a closed California beach. No consideration about actual harm, just mindless fury that he wasn't obeying the diktats

With a lot of folks (not just leftists/liberals/democrats either), anything they like, they believe everyone should like it too—even by force if necessary. Anything they don’t like, they believe you shouldn’t like it either and they’ll enact laws to keep you from it, if they have too.
I think it goes even deeper than that. IMHO, it's not just about compelling others to make the same choice that they would, it's about erasing the idea that there is even a choice to be made. The paddle board example is a good one to make this point.
First, zero tolerance policies like this eliminate critical thinking from the equation by making violations black and white. The beach is closed, that guy is in the ocean. He is in violation. Those with totalitarian tendencies must eliminate critical thinking through social conditioning n order to control others who may question the edicts.
Second, the average person sees a man paddle boarding alone and thinks, "there's no risk to that. He's not harming anyone. That action seems perfectly reasonable." Again, this undermines the edicts of totalitarian-minded people. They cannot risk the rest of the public seeing that making a choice is even an option. If the man paddle boarding in the ocean is not made an example of, then others might be inspired to make their own choice. Totalitarians can't allow that.
Government shouldn’t mandate anything about masks. If a business wants to require it, that’s their right. It’s my right to take my money elsewhere. Requiring me to wear a piece of clothing through government mandate? No. I didn’t see any mandates to wear a condom during the AIDS epidemic.That's all good. I really should have asked if you were talking solely about government mandates.
