Protecting themselves against a possibly life-threatening disease, not acting as a spreader. It’s literally what vaccines are for. Do you have something else in mind?
But they’re young, so their risk is minimal, and if everybody’s going to get exposed to the virus anyway (that’s what they’re saying now), you aren’t protecting anybody.

Regardless, being exposed after vaccination is better than before vaccination.
There's low net-reason for them to trust incumbent institutions.
I don't blame them one bit.
Also if you're young & non-overweight, the personal risk is negligible.
Same reason everyone else should be. Why are they special?
What are you talking about? For protection from COVID, not spread it to other people, herd immunity etc.
No job, no access to covid relief, no access to public services. There will be plenty of sticks. Potentially saving you own life and those of your family should be the carrot.
