I would have hoped so, but I've met several people who have started off by making a point of standing over 2 metres away whilst talking, and 5 minutes later have been standing no more than one metre away, with their mask well and truly slipped. So no, you might get it, but a lot of people don't, and I say this because at least two of the people who I've seen behaving like this, are elderly with vulnerable health conditions.
Fwiw, I agree with all those who advocate having the vaccines and booster(s), and I also agree with those who say they want to get some pleasure out of life while they can. But I do think everyone owes it to everyone else to be careful as far as they can. I know too many people suffering in pain waiting for operations, who keep getting them cancelled because of Covid patients jumping the queue for hospital beds, and all too often they have Covid through carelessness.
Ahh, the joy of the hospital waiting list.
My 8 week wait turned into 2 years. That only because I paid several thousand pounds (which I had to borrow) for a surgeon who also practices on the NHS to do it privately. When he did do it, it turned out that there were complications that hadn't been known about that could have been very serious indeed.
I had precisely one generic letter from the NHS during that 2 year period that was to everyone on the waiting list for that whole department, and that was after over 18 months.
It was done privately within 4 weeks of my picking up the phone. With regard to the NHS being there for you - I want my money back.
What is "careful", incidentally?
As a train guard on Sprinter trains I have been routinely forced into close contact with large numbers of people in a small space throughout the whole affair, many of whom have made personal choices to be very drunk and lairy, which I've had no choice at all about. I can also assure you that Doris who wears her daft home made mask all the time and wags her finger about the young ones piling into night clubs has very few compulsions about breathing down my neck when I'm opening the train doors to try and be the first off.
I have no interest therefore in limiting my own activities because why should I? As it happens my personal preferences means that has consisted of no more than visiting mostly quiet pubs, the theatre, a zoo and the cinema to watch James Bond - but given my regular exposure to people of all types at work, and COVID is everywhere there, we have loads off as we speak, being careful would imply I should stay out of the way.
That's last year's game, I've had my vaccines, I wear a mask when required (regardless of personal opinions on effectiveness) and having had some very soul searching conversations with friends and family, some of whom spent most of last year locked up, have found them to be mostly like minded regarding life, and the small number who aren't I respect their choices and will see them on the other side or not, as the case may be.
