English term or phrase: cocooning
Definition from Citizens Information:
Cocooning involves staying at home and reducing face-to-face interaction with other people as much as possible. It is intended to minimise your risk of getting COVID-19.

Example sentence(s):
  • Cocooning should be resourced proactively and tailored to meet the distinct needs of high-risk subgroups, including work-at-home and paid leave programs that enable high-risk workers to self-isolate CDC
  • If you have someone else living with you, who does not fit the criteria for cocooning, they are not required to adopt these protective cocooning measures for themselves. They should do what they can to support you in cocooning and they should stringently follow guidance on physical distancing, reducing their contact outside the home. gov.ie
  • Almost 1 in 6 participants reported that while cocooning they did not seek medical attention for an illness, when they otherwise would have done so. Half of those who did not seek medical attention said this was because they were afraid of catching COVID-19. EurekAlert

önkéntes karantén


Definition from Lexiq:
A hétköznapi szóhasználatban elterjedt az önkéntes karantén kifejezés is, amikor járvány idején az egészséges emberek saját elhatározásukból visszaszorítják a társasági életet és otthonuk elhagyását.

Example sentence(s):
  • Akármekkora is a „személyes kolostorod”, az önkéntes bezárkózás ideje alatt fontos, hogy figyelj a testedre, és mozogj eleget. - Szent Maurítiusz Monostor  
  • A tömeges elkülönítésen túl létezik személyes karantén is, amikor egy fertőző beteg akár a saját otthonában, akár egy kórházban van elkülönítve. - Lexiq  

Explanation:
A példákban szabadon és általánosan elterjedt szinonímákat írtam: önkéntes bezárkózás, személyes karantén, de lehetne önkéntes elzárkózás vagy begubózás is.
