For what it’s worth, I’ve been to five countries other than my home country, flown 50+ times, attended work meetings, went to plays, etc, since the pandemic started. Luck is certainly part of the reason I haven’t got COVID, but even more important: all the vaccines, masking when not eating, avoiding small crowded spaces with bad air quality.
You don’t need to live in a bubble. Precautions can let you live without getting sick. So you can do more of the things you want to do.
