Scared about lockdown restrictions being lifted

I'm not scared, more trepidatious. I worry because people are acting like everything is OK now, that the virus has gone, most people are vaccinated, so there's no risk. That sort of thinking and behaviour will bring the next wave on. I was quite content during lockdown. I've always preferred my own company, and I enjoyed not getting random sellers/JWs/other-unwanted-visitors at my door. The only thing I missed was walking further afield and caching. I was listening to a scientist the other day and he was saying that the new variant is growing exponentially at the moment, not very fast yet, but growing nonetheless, and we need to still be safe and adhere to the rules or we'll be back to square one before we know it. But people aren't sticking to the rules, so that is a worry. People lean over you in shops or stand right behind you in the queue and it pees me right off! I'm immunocompromised so other people wearing masks and everyone social distancing has helped me feel safer. I personally like wearing a mask because it feels like I'm hidden, and I like being hidden, so I'll continue to wear one until I feel the threat has gone (I know I don't wear it for my protection, but for other people's, but it does give a *little* protection to the wearer....). It's weird time, for sure. I don't think anything will ever be *normal* again, I think certain things have changed forever.

It's not over. I wish it was. The Delta variant is starting to spread and vaccinations may not be able to keep up. 

Hear! Hear!
