...that's one of the more interesting debates about all of this, IMO, because just like with the vaccine, it's not about whether you can get Covid again, but about your chances of being hospitalized for Covid the 2nd/3rd/nth time.
Granted, I think you'd still need a good reason not to get vaccinated beyond recovering from Covid, especially if the reality becomes proof of vaccine to do stuff.

I don’t think lockdowns are necessary.
I do think Hospitals can plan better by moving elective / non critical surgeries to non covid windows short term (seasonalities) plan for worst flu type seasons. I think long term you will see more and more people taking the vaccine as well.
Regardless. I do think the vaccine / boosters are the best option for high risk people. I just can’t get behind the mandate to force someone to do it. Especially for low risk people.
Because while the vaccines provide better protection vs Hospitalizations and Deaths vs the unvaccinated. You are still talking about a low rate of hospitalization/ deaths among the unvaccinated in certain age groups.
