I'm one of the silly people still wearing masks when I don't have to, but I think me not getting COVID (or, rather, having any idea that I had it, if I did) is really mostly in the dumb luck category.

I expect my luck will run out eventually (e.g., was the person coughing a lot on the train doing that because of COVID? Who knows?), but like most of these sicknesses, we're probably talking about getting things, on average, every couple of years.

So, "getting it less" or "getting it in a way that's not so bad" are probably the goals.

Like with the flu, or colds, or really any other unpleasant thing.
