>because covid will stay with us, just like flu, so you'll probably contract it several times.

Yea this is essentially what I was talking about. Coronoviruses do not go away, exactly. So it is a giant crisis if people don't take an experimental vaccine (it is different than previous vaccines and you know this, so don't lump all of them into one group) that will have very limited effectiveness and then they'll still get covid. Are you going to keep getting boosters for the rest of your life? This is silly.

I'm in my 30's. But I'd really love to see where you've found a CFR rate near 1 for 40s that, again, aren't overweight, which I and many people aren't. A majority of covid deaths included comorbitities especially overweight/obese.

My point is, for people of a specific group of characteristics, covid is a non-issue. For these people, whether they get the vaccine or not is not important, and crushing our economy by firing people and inducing political and social conflict is such an unforced error. Even China doesn't mandate the vaccine.

Even given everything you just said, I'd bet you'd still advocate the vaccine for kids yes? Which is just absurd. People are listening to some so-called experts (there are plenty that have different opinions than the main-stream consensus) and like a social contagion going crazy over something that isn't that big of a deal for so many people.
