I suggest you tweet out that second claim on its own to get wider feedback on that (as a fellow academic let me say I consider it completely absurd!). As for your second point: when I say ignoring herd immunity,...
That rests on a presumption on long-term immunity. It is also, of course, a very odd strawman not only of my position but of the majority of epidemiological thought

Also, worth noting that without a fulsome examination of long-term sequelae of COVID-19, the argument that immunity is largely without cost in certain populations is by its very nature a spurious one

These ideas do not depend on believing that there is a 100% chance that there is 100% perfect immunity over the long term. They do depend on believing that the cost borne by infection by different populations are different, one of the most well-established features of COVID.1/
