I definitely don't look forward for the boomer generation in my family to get their vaccine, I expect these numbers to go even higher.
(in fact I look forward but I'm bitter by their behaviour, blaming the younger generations while they can't cope with the basic safety rules, social distancing or even lockdowns... )

We've decided to play it the same way with my partner. He's older and more at risk, but at the end I'm the one vetoing for anything I find unsafe

I am tired of being the one everyone is willing to sacrifice.

I live in the same situation via my partner. If it makes you feel better, I tried to think the other way. If we were to get vaccinated before and they would be reopening the economy, I would still self isolate until 70% of the population around is vaccinated.
