There isn't much realistically you can do. You will get Covid at some point, and having had it, you will at some point get it again, and probably again after that.

Covid is a given now, a bit like the common cold. It isn't going away and whatever you do, you will get it.

The vaccine isn't going to change anything about the above, although it should at least reduce the severity of the disease.

Most governments have made the assessment that it isn't worth going all out to protect us from Covid. Government sponsored lock downs are unlikely, free mass vaccination is unlikely and free testing kits are a thing of the past. Most governments aren't even bothering to monitor the spread of new variants - a side effect of the end of mass testing.

You will get Covid. If not this one, maybe the next one, or the one after that.

Your best chance, were you to get very ill, is to get ill away from the peak of infections because that's the time the medical services are at their most stretched. You can either try and get it early, before any peak gets going by finding ill people and hanging out around them, or do social distancing and all the infection control stuff you can handle to keep yourself safe and hope to get it later, after the peak has passed.

I would suggest not worrying too much - unlike the early days, these later versions of Covid are not as dangerous. You will get Covid - that's a given. But it is very unlikely to kill you unless there are other factors in your health profile at play.

You can help other people by doing as much as possible to prevent you spreading it around. Wearing a mask, washing your hands regularly etc.
