I just keep practicing most of the covid measures. When I am away I avoid touching my face, when I come home I wash my hands immediately, and I am also getting the optional vaccinations against influenza and the current covid strain whenever appropriate.

Doing this I haven't been sick for about 5 years now. Haven't even catched covid during the pandemic.

Going to one up this. When they relaxed the mandates my wife and I realized we had not gotten sick in any way for the period and normally we do once a year so we kept going. We were due about when covid hit and started masking early given the videos out of china. Long and short is we finally got sick with something, but not to bad, after more than 4 years. Anyway we are keeping all the stuff going. Not quite as strictly maybe but if we can be sick 4 times less often then we find it worth it.
