Almost zero-risk behaviour: Staying home with others who largely do the same.
Low-risk behaviour: Incidental, glancing contact with others in a retail setting where everyone wears masks
High-risk behaviour: Prolonged indoor contact without masks with other people

High-risk behaviour: Prolonged indoor contact without masks with other people
Bottom line:
You likely won't get sick or sicken others if you limit your trips outside the home and wear masks when you do so.
On the other hand, you may expose yourself or others if you choose to ignore advice and socialize without masks.
