> so you don't have an opinion on young people being denied university, work (in many sectors), and - in my child's case

I think young people should be provided with option for remote learning unless vaccinated. Regarding work - I think vaccination should be mandatory (as of today) for jobs working with other people and optional for remote work. I think football for kids (outside venues) should be allowed without limitations.

> The study you linked to is interesting, but it was published 6 months ago.

There are follow up updates on this study with more data from more countries with the same conclusion.

> You analysed the situation and made a choice you believe is right. You might be proved wrong in the mid to long term (and consequently be a burden on the health system)

As are you (and perhaps - our kids and that's on us). Life is hard and then you die.

> Since then, we have seen almost in real time athletes dropping with career-ending or life-ending disease (there seem to be 3 collapses and one death in the last 48 hours in the football world).

This is pattern matching - your are emotionally invested into particular opinion and seeking for patterns that confirm your beliefs. I'm sure this will be investigated. Not sure that vaccination will be sole reason for this.

> Clearly, in my opinion, before any more children/young adults are forced to take this, we need to a study on what is going on. For example, is the heart giving out due to high, intense levels of exertion significantly more often in the vaxxed cohort as opposed to the non-vaxxed? How many of them were diagnosed with covid (with and without heavy symptoms, and so on?

No disagreements there regarding need for study and regarding "forced to take this", especially for children.

> Are we really that dumb? Are these questions and concerns really so silly that we should just wait for more data in 5 years

No you should ask questions, require research (don't do your own research though, that's important because none of us are qualified enough), write letters to local/country politicians and institutions for reasoning and data. And yes, also wait for more data in 5 years because we are flying half-blind and balancing act of old people dying right now (live on TV) and young people having (or not having, we don't know yet) potential health issues in future.

> Or could there be intense political pressure to get everyone vaccinated for reasons other than the general health of the population?
