Just my opinion right now, and that could change given new information, but I believe that the vaccine should go to those that are most vulnerable. What I mean is that if hospitalization and death occurs in a certain age group, I believe they should get it first. Since it hardly effects children, I would suggest that they be given it as soon as possible after those most vulnerable down to the least vulnerable. I realize that there are those that may be in contact with infected also, and I believe they should be in the upper tier when it comes to priority. That said, there are exceptions to any rule. I believe that we all should relax and just take it when offered. Personally, since I have a great immune system I would give my vaccine to my spouse. And since I do not allow panic and hysteria rule my life (what's left of it) I do not see the point of speculation or even demanding. On the one hand, I hear those that don't trust the vaccine and on the other hand I hear those that are demanding their place in line. And some of them are in both categories. The only reason I care about the vaccine is so that we can hear the last of this mandatory mask mandate that so many screamers demand. I wish to live life normally without having to pretend that I care about wearing masks to satisfy others.
Remember, the vaccine dosage count is not limited to 50 million doses. They will be steadily manufacturing, producing and shipping thousands of doses a day the whole time the vaccinations are being distributed. If you don't get in on the first wave of vaccinations, wait a bit and it will be first come first served before you know it. And does it really matter which version of it you get? After all, the results of these vaccines have tested better than any of our Flu vaccines that usually average between 40-60% effective. These are in the 90's% effective.
No reason to argue over who deserves the vaccine first. You'll get your turn at bat.
