There is zero evidence of the exponential growth you are describing.

Not yet, data collection takes time. On that link above there are stories of people who got long covid on their 3rd or 4th infection. If that could happen with repeated infections, would that lead to mass disability over time (e.g. 25% workforce with ME/CFS unable to do pretty much anything)?

Life is the best teacher for losing arrogance. Once it happens to somebody you are close to or even to yourself, then you might change your mind. I hope you won't do too much damage by then.
