If you understand that vaccine won't solve anything, i.e. it'll be less effective and more dangerous than the crappiest mask. Then it's pretty easy to just accept that you have to wear a mask around people for a long time, the rest of your life if you prefer, and live a normal life. We had lockdown only for two months in april and may, after that it's back to normal, but in masks.
