I went off grid in February 2020. I was unaware of the pandemic. That was such a serendipitous good decision. Given that I know whats is coming, its probably a good move again.

Is it a giant asteroid? Aliens? All out nuclear war? Zombies?

Please say it's Aliens...

Like actually unaware? I'm intrigued.

Yeah, completely. I couldn't figure out why the city buses were all free and empty. I was job searching also unaware of how bad unemployment was. But got one in march 2020 in the middle of nowhere so I moved into a camper in at the top of a mountain next to national forest. I only became aware of the pandemic once I started the job and mask mandates went in effect right when I got there. Since I already worked and lived far away from society I didn't notice much the entire time. I never did a lockdown, I commuted and worked everyday like normal.
