Vaccine prioritization is one thing I really haven’t followed closely. Who should get their doses before who? I really don’t have much of an opinion other than the fact that I, a healthy 20-year-old who works from home, should be getting it last.
Obviously healthcare workers who are in direct contact with Covid patients getting it right at the start was a good move. Then other healthcare workers, senior citizens and so on.
The next stage seems to be the more debated or even contentious one. Essential workers. But isn’t everyone’s job “essential”? I think a better way of putting it is “people whose jobs have them dealing with the general public everyday”.
I certainly don’t envy the people who have to decide who gets vaccine priority over who. Especially with Canada lagging behind other nations in doses administered, as everyone looks forward to summer.
