A specific type of asshole who sees the coronavirus pandemic as a desired form of social Darwinism where only the strong survive it, believing it perfectly acceptable to allow vulnerable segments of the population die from preventable disease.
Covid eugenicists lack an understanding in this principle that long covid and other disease-induced injury will render far more people disabled, continuing the cycle of seeking elimination of those they judge as weak or unworthy of life. In addition, they have no sense of irony that they themselves may not survive, preventing them from seeing the übermensch society they yearn for.
While there is some overlap, covid eugenicists differ from covid denialists in that they acknowledge the reality of the pandemic. The most recognizable parallel is deliberately refusing to engage in very simple, non-invasive actions to reduce harm to themselves and others. The main difference is they act this way out of sheer spite, ego, selfishness, and narcissistic contrarianism (see also: toddler).
Whether eugenicist or denialist, both segments are generally not nice people and should be avoided like the plague.

Standard covid eugenicist arguments:
"99% survive*"
Translation: "I don't care about that 1%"
"It takes only the sick, elderly, and infirm"
Translation: "Those people are a burden on society and should just die already."
"I got it and came out just fine"
Translation: "My unique experience is evidence that it's no big deal"
"I refuse to live in fear"
Translation 1: "I won't catch it, and even if I do, I'll be fine because I'm better and stronger than the rest of you peons" (see also: cognitive dissonance)
Translation 2: "I'm not afraid of a disease that has so far killed over 5 million people and disabled ten times that many but keep that vaccination that has saved many millions more away from me"
(*As of this writing, it's actually 98.2%)

Get the Covid eugenicistmug. A dream in which Covid exists and you become aware of the risks. You may be in a crowd and suddenly think "...Wait... why is nobody wearing masks??? Why is nobody socially distancing????? Oh my god they're coughing too!!!!!!! I'm going to catch Covid oh my god!!!!!"
"I had another Covid Dream where I was on a cruise ship and there were like 500 people in one enclosed room, no masks, nobody distancing... and then I heard some of them coughing!!! And then I found there was no way out and I was stuck in this room where no Covid precautions were being taken!!!
