Very very few young and healthy (eg sensible bmi, some exercise, no smoking) people died of COVID. I think it was about a dozen in the UK.
A few hundred young people had heart damage from moderna: https://www.cidrap.umn.edu/rare-heart-related-side-effects-higher-moderna-covid-vaccine https://www.cidrap.umn.edu/rare-heart-related-side-effects-h...
Probably no deaths though: https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/healthandsocialcare/causesofdeath/articles/covid19vaccinationandmortalityinyoungpeopleduringthecoronaviruspandemic/2022-03-22 https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/healthan...
Disclaimer: I think on the net it was sensible for young healthy people to take even Moderna as COVID can cause serious long term damage, but it wasn't costless and we aren't completely sure that it was a net benefit to the healthy young for them to vaccinate (this is ignoring the large effects from things like them infecting others or taking up healthcare resources).
