Unfortunately the vaccines hardly impact transmission, but when it comes to health outcomes and deaths, the statistics show a huge difference between those vaccinated and those not. You have completely overlooked this which is a vital oversight.

I really do see a problem in linking governments around the world trying to push for civil liberty restrictions during this pandemic with a more profound push towards totalitarianism. At this stage, please wear your mask, please wash your hands, please take the vaccine (it's not illegal if you don't, so chill - none of us are women in Afghanistan). When we're in a different global health situation I'll be there with you at the front of the protest, jumping up and down and pushing for a rollback of the restrictions which were brought into place. If those restrictions aren't lifted then your case is very strong, until then, a little government restriction is going to save a lot of lives.
