I have never tested positive for COVID despite not being cautious and usually PCR testing when symptomatic (always at least rapid testing). I have had 5 vaccine shots, and intend to get another shot every 5-7 months.

My COVID risk management policy has been that I usually do not go out to crowded indoors venues for 2-3 weeks during peak Fall/Winter spikes. For the rest of the year, I go to crowded restaurants, bars, venues etc. regularly.

I expect to behave similarly in 2023.

(Edit: I lost easy access to pcr testing mid 2023 but still rapid testing)
