is it ok to force people to sacrifice these freedoms?
That depends of benefits. People are part of the community so if something is wrong with the community it is also bad for the individual. If you compare long-term consequences, deaths from covid and also other illnesses due to healthcare sys break with wearing masks and/or vccns, which ppls freedom (right) is worse endangered? Is it ok to sacrifice less to gain more? Individual responsibility is overrated ;) it can work well only in social environment where people feel safe, or at least, don.t feel anxious and afraid about everything, which can be achieved only in states/communities where there is trust in leaders and you are not preoccupied with yourself but can have empathy towards social surrounding. What we have now in many countries is giving people freedom to choose and them blame them for being irresponsible; yes, easy way to cover incompetence of leaders, or something else. Does not work that way, one of the functions of state is to protect citizens form disasters or at least make decisions that will not harm them; that is what we don.t see on a world scene since the beginning of pandemic. So, personal responsibility works in relation with its habitat; maybe more people will be ready to willingly follow measures if there were trust in what our leaders are advocating and doing.
Quit a job? We are talking about lesser evil again. Yes, I can quit my job and not be able to pay for everything that needs to be paid; I can sell everything I have and live some time with that, as much possible far from other people; I can go to woods and ask some wolves to adopt me. But that is worse choice, at least for the person like me.
Being aware where one.s responsibility ends and another.s starts and acting accordingly is making boundaries; it is not same as making yourself a victim.
Being a victim means feeling I don.t have a choice; one can make the same decision as "victim" but not feel that way because is aware of options and is choosing what, in that moment think, is better.
And life... life is the most lethal disease, it ends in death 100% ;P

P.S. You have my time-open invitation to Serbia, to feel a bit how is to live without a job and zero savings ;) bcs here around 80% of people don.t have from what to take to put it in saving mode; seriously, invitations stands; promise to give you something to eat ;P
