Young people have far lower fatality and hospitalization rates though. If COVID only infected people under 40 it would be equivalent to a bad flu season.

A lot of reason for mask wearing and social distancing is to protect the vulnerable

yeah, i mean that’s why we are vaccinating the most vulnerable first and i agree that’s the ethically right thing to do. but doing it the other way around would probably stop it quicker.
