Yes, be vigilant but it's not going away. Newer variants are more likely to be less deadly than thr first strains as people become more resistant and vaccines are made.

TBH in any gym you're more likely to catch something else than covid

Also the fucker evolves.

This is the situation with covid now - strains that kill don’t spread so much. Weaker, more persistent illness is where it’s going, and we are going to live with it for a while.

OP is right to be concerned, as it’s not gone away, but over time it should diminish into basically a seasonal flu.
