Covid exposure

My son is 7mo and was born a week before covid started to get bad. My best friend (his aunt) hasn’t seen him since he was 2 weeks old. She currently works on the covid floor at the hospital and hasn’t been around for that reason. I know covid is still much alive, but we are tired of living in fear of it. We go out into public all the time and the same for her. He always is in daycare surrounded by other children with parents that work in the hospitals. I am debating if we should go ahead and let her see him again soon, or wait it out. The only problem we have with waiting it out, is this could go on for years and never end

Update: thank you everyone for your point of view. We’ve decided to let her see him because we aren’t always promised tomorrow and don’t want to live in fear over something that could last until he’s 5
