Everyone who gets vaccinated is contributing, because you're all preventing the spread. Once it's not spreading, then it might be OK to hold off on shots so that the elderly can get them, but for now as many people should get it as possible.
The US, despite actually doing very well at vaccine distribution, should probably have switched to the one shot for everyone model.
This is a fair point. I'm also sick of hearing about unions complaining about this occupation not being vaccinated or this group with this health condition not being vaccinated first. If we expended all of the energy to somehow rate all of these competing factors we'd never be done.
Everyone wants themselves first, then whoever. I ran as soon as I was informed I'm eligible, who wouldn't. I'm well aware that as someone who works from home I should be lower on the list, but now I don't worry about life as much. (I'll worry less after my second shot)
Even if you work from home you still go out sometimes to stores and places like that. That's why living in rural areas didn't actually make people safer than in cities - they still gathered inside places like stores and church.
Or maybe you don't go out, I dunno. I do get too much delivery.
