It is pretty unsettling. The rate in Los Angeles is the highest it's been since March, and close to five times the rate of a month ago. LA residents have to go back to wearing masks indoors starting this weekend. According to the NY Times, the national rate is twice that of two weeks ago, and the death rate is also higher than at that time.

I am fully vaccinated.
I still am wearing a N95 mask indoors.

I don't like getting sick even with a bad cold.
I don't even want to get a "mild" case of Covid.

It is very unsettling & it was to be expected, given the sudden extremity to which restrictions have been lifted. The terrifying thing is that a lot of people (ie my mother, who had 4 weeks of joint pain so searing she nearly stroked out a couple of times, her bp & disorientation became so extreme) are only able to tolerate one dose of the 2 dose vaccines, & too scared to gamble on another. For a lot of them, it's not willfullness or selfishness. And some even fully vaccinated catch it & have bad symptoms. Masks on, PLEASE, indoors & I would say also in crowded outdoor settings....am fully vaccinated & I still keep wearing one.
