Don't have one--it depends on the current situation that could likely affect my area. And if I did have a preference, I would re-examine it with each new significant piece of information. In general, both public health and freedom are important, and as necessary impose mandates on subsets of the population (e.g. healthcare workers). May not seem fair from certain points of view, but I don't believe in optimizing for fairness--having everyone pay equally. Some will be more affected by random events than others. This view could get tested if a far more dangerous variant was headed my way and my tune would be vaccinate everyone using the best we have access to. I really don't see this happening though. Requiring proof of vaccination for sit-down eating, entertainment, etc seems fair enough and a good incentive along with lockdowns when rates are high that could be less often if more people were vaccinated. So far the reports have been nothing more than 'fear news'. Have there been any stories lately about a variant that is both severe and spreading?
