Thank goodness for the voice of reason. You are absolutely right in everything you say. What is the point of vaccinating all the over 80s and 90s when they are able to stay safely at home. The workers and teenagers and students should be being vaccinated first as they are the ones who are keeping the infection going. I think it should be NHS staff and care staff, followed by teachers and school staff, then all key workers and school children, then students, then people at particular risk (if they weren’t already done in another group) and followed by the rest of society. This infection will go on and on and on, and by the time it’s contained, a vast number of the over 90s, who were first in the queue for a vaccine, will have died anyway of something else.
I realise my view won’t be popular on a site for older people, but it’s the harsh truth. As long as the oldest, who will simply go home after vaccination, are the ones being vaccinated, the virus will continue to rage all around us.
