We stopped getting it over a decade ago. We've had the flu a couple of times but we don't get that sick from it. I believe that natural immunity is far superior to vaccination whenever possible.
I also think that all of the hyper cleanliness, mask wearing and distancing is going to be terrible for people in the long run because it will weaken their immune system to even the most mild of bugs.

There might be something to this logic. It reminds me a bit of the Spartans:
“The Spartan government was only interested in the best for its state, which meant that strong children were the only ones that would survive. Both baby girls and boys were put through initial tests to see if they were strong enough to be useful to the state. If a child did not pass these fitness or health tests, they would be left to die, outside of main living area of the state, typically in the wild, or in the mountains. Sparta was not a state to accept anything but the best, and this practise started at a young age.”
