There's a new variant of a deadly virus where vaccine effectiveness isn't confirmed, but hey, get on with your life, worst case you just die.

You do you, I have friends working in the ICU who see young people die daily. Having my groceries delivered instead of having to stroll through the shop really doesn't affect me.
