Thanks for a well written, informative article. The quotes in the BMJ article from policy makers discussing vaccinating the naturally immune tells me everything I need to know. There's no hiding how little they care about individual risk/benefit if that truth makes things 'complicated' for them. Just give them all the shot and see what happens. This is bad science and medicine.
>> Data on severe illness and death from COVID still seems to me to indicate vaccination is the way to go for most immunologically naive adults (all else being equal)
Given the overwhelmingly low (and dropping) IFR, you really believe this? That COVID presents sufficient risk to normal healthy adults (I assume this is what you meant by "all else being equal") that vaccination is the wisest choice for nearly everyone, given everything else known about the efficacy and risks of the vaccines themselves?
I can think of very few risks I face on a daily basis that concern me less than COVID.
