It's undeniable that there was a lot of lobbying and likely also corruption going on behind the scenes regarding COVID - a lot of people got rich hoarding or brokering masks, toilet paper, COVID tests or vaccines after all.
At the same time, it is also undeniable that COVID killed millions of people worldwide, gave tens to hundreds of millions of people Long COVID (depending on how exactly one defines the "long" term) and caused an immense loss of wealth due to containment measures (that were justified by the death count). Vaccines, in particular the mRNA vaccines, saved our world - were it not for them, the losses would have been orders of magnitude worse than the losses due to corruption and mismanagement.
That can all be true and it still be the case that very many people were forced to be vaccinated unnecessarily, and suffered more damage from that unnecessary vaccination than they would have otherwise. Healthy youth, for instance, should not have been forced to inject themselves with these experiments.

Schools were a primary vector for disease transmission into their families, and that even way before Covid. Just look how many of your colleagues with children all fall sick after longer school holidays. (Side note, we definitely need investment into RSV and more influenza variant vaccines!)
Additionally, we could invest money into our schools so that they have decent air filtration, or even ventilation. Think back to your school time and remember how often you had to spend time in classrooms with barely any oxygen left ffs, or how many toilets had working water to wash your hands or towels to dry them. Preventative measures against Covid and other illnesses have a lot of other positive side effects.

There was more than enough evidence that the vaccines were safe from adults and from populations that were early-on with vaccine adoption (especially Israel - there aren't that many Jews left on the world and they are a lot more proactive when it comes to keeping them alive).
Besides, even young and fit people can have devastating impact from Covid. Quite a few athletes were permanently out of the game after they caught Covid, and youth at risk (e.g. from obesity which is very widespread among young people these days) had it even worse. I know two people who were out of work for months.
