All those people will be vaccinated before I am anyway. I'm not in the "at risk" group. I'm not over 65, I have no illnesses that make me more at risk than anyone else, and now that I'm retired, I'm no longer an essential worker.
But when it's my "turn" - I'll want to know that people who SHOULD be vaccinated, AND WANT to be vaccinated, were able to get theirs - before I get mine.
Again - just because you can, doesn't mean you should. Having permission to get something doesn't require that I get ahead of someone else who needs it more than I do.
I am ALLOWED to take a seat on the train. But if I see someone who needs the seat more than I do, I'll stand so they can sit.
I am ENTITLED to eat every single apple in the bag of apples that I bought at the supermarket. But if I see someone in passing who appears hungry, I will give them one of my apples.
Because it's the right thing to do.
