how to WFH forever?

Looks like the corona vaccine is going to be rolled out next year, even for people in Phase 3, which I assume the majority of young finance professionals fall under.. unless you've got a side gig as a nurse. The only way I am tolerating this job is WFH. People yelling, the hours, the amount of tedious bs, is only tolerable when I can WFH and do something enjoyable in my spare downtime. I imagine if I were back in the office I'd be spending that spare downtime mindlessly staring at Bloomberg or an Excel sheet to look busy.

Unless we have some super radical left labor secretary, it's possible HR will start publishing "return to workplace" timelines, and "encouraging" us to get the vaccines so we can all go back to the office and have a happy collaborative work environment again (sarcasm). What are some good excuses to not take the vaccine and thus be able to continue to WFH? Anyone else dreading return to workplace?
