I'm not recommending people become recluses, I'm recommending that now, when you have social connections, you practice taking time to enjoy being alone, and not just being distracted alone. Take a long walk by yourself, spend sometime reading in a quiet room, mediate if you enjoy it, go for a bike ride by yourself, when social spaces up again, practice going to the bar or to slowly drink a coffee by yourself, get dinner by yourself more often.
And to make it clear, my point isn't "be more alone" but rather than "being comfortable being alone helps us maintain social connections better".
