The risk/benefit calculation depends on where you live and/or plan to travel. I fear I'm beginning to forget what life was like before Covid, but IIRC people used to travel quite a lot. For example, Japanese encephalitis is rare in Japan, but only because many Japanese people have been vaccinated against it. It's endemic in most other parts of east, southeast, and south Asia. It kills 10K+ people every year, and it spreads through mosquito bites just like malaria. But most travelers only worry about malaria.
