    No

    They can and will be banned from certain activities and might be fined if they attempt to do them anyway

    Not likely.  They didn't in past pandemics, such as the Influenza and Polio.  However, they could require that people visiting certain public places be inoculated, and private businesses could require it.

    50 billion dollars have been dedicated by this stimulus package to what's called covid tracing. The whole purpose of this is to identify everybody that's a covid risk in other words are you giving covid to people have you been vaccinated. If you get contacted by the tracing team they're going to send you to the doctor.

    For a test and for a vaccine. And I believe the covid virus vaccine will become like any other school vaccine you won't be able to get in school until you prove that you've had the vaccine.

    And it'll probably be the same on employment if you have not got your vaccine you're not eligible to work in the United States

    You can’t rule anything out with Democrats running the show.

    As the laws I know of now stand, there is no fine levied for failure to vaccinate.

    There will probably be laws, enacted by the states, that require it for certain activities (for example, you might have to be vaccinated or present a medical exemption before registering for any public school, including colleges; working for state or municipal government in any capacity; working in health care or food production; receiving public assistance), and some states will surely allow employers to demand if it they choose to.

    So if you refuse the vaccine, you can expect certain doors to be closed to you based on that decision--but right now, they're not.

    Individual nations can and will enact their own laws about admitting people who have not been vaccinated.

    It depends where.  In most democratic countries the vaccine is being presented as optional.  However if you want to travel and/or do various social things there will be increasing pressure to prove that you have either tested negative or been vaccinated.  I can see being fined for not providing such proof while travelling or while doing certain social things.  One can choose not to take the vaccine but one has to live with the fallout.  It's better for everyone if as many people as possible get vaccinated.  They have been proven to be the most effective way of controlling diseases like Covid.
