I mainly avoid doing anything with any appreciable covid risk. If I can't, like, if I have to go to a doctor, in person, then I will wear a mask. Turns out I still think giving people brain damage is a morally bad thing to do. And if you do any basic modelling of virus spread, any one infection becomes the ancestor of many thousands of cases in the first two years. From there you just apply the long covid rates and death rates, which shows trivially that spreading covid is morally equivalent to killing people, and maiming hundreds of people. So I do whatever I can to avoid that, including masks where appropriate, but more importantly, avoiding situations where you even have to mask. In my view each individual's right to go to a restaurant or whatever does not outweigh the consequences of covid spread (before you even factor mutation in). Of course, I realize this won't solve anything at a societal/global level. But individual morality is still a thing in my view.
