Should vaccination be based on race or who needs the most . ..I for one think it should go to -1st Responders ,no matter what race they're ! !! Than it should go to elderly and people who work in the Nursing Homes and sick people . .(with underlying health conditions )

I think after first responders but then to people still working and people who could work if things opened up. Get the workers safe to keep the economy going and then the elderly.

Sounds fair to me & it still should be personal choice. No managed/directed mandatory policy. As a 1st responder I'm not getting one so someone who really needs it can. Our Dept. gives you the choice.

Follow the science instead of politics. Vaccinate the most vulnerable and those who serve them first. I don't care what color they are. After that vaccinate those who want it.

Agreed !!

And hardest hit communities

I would imagine hardest hit communities would be nursing and assisted living facilities. I'm fine with giving the vaccine to the hardest hit after the most vulnerable and first responders. My sister and brother in law both got the vaccine. He had no side affects. Her arm and hand hurt like hell for a day and she was very tired for 48 hours. Now she feels fine, 72 hours later.

That's exactly where it's going.

Has anyone considered this?.... The people who are spreading the virus the most are, and always have been, those who are asymptomatic. Since they show no signs of being sick and they feel fine, they carry on w/ their normal (or at least normal for 2020) way of life (whereas people feeling ill tend to stay home), unknowingly infecting who knows how many others. These are primarily young people and while it is true that most young people generally don't suffer much from the effects of Covid, they are still prolonging the life of the virus by providing it with multiple hosts. Remember, when a virus can no longer find a host, that virus dies.

So, in essence, these are the super-spreaders (I'm not blaming them - it's really not their fault, at least in most instances). I think a case could be made for vaccinating the super spreaders first (or at least near the first). As it stands, they will probably be the last in line to get a vaccine. I believe that smarter people than I should rethink this stuff, as it could be a grave mistake. It reminds me of earlier in the year, here in San Antonio, testing was only offered to symptomatic people. Those w/ no symptoms were not allowed a test. I thought at the time, that is ass-backwards - and it is.

Just my two cents - something to think about.

The fact is, we need the whole country to get it first, but I realize that is not possible.

My household isn't taking it. Multiple medications and food allergies, older, heart problems, blood pressure issues, epi-pens, reactions to flu and penicillin vaccine shots. Just got taken off another med this week--adverse reactions.

The masks don't work or so many people wouldn't be getting sick because the masks are mandatory where the numbers are high.

Then there are false positives, deaths by trauma ruled covid-19, and the percentages of deaths by age groups remain almost the same historically in the US.

But you are Correct !!!!!

Maybe.

420 :)

Dwbill Loc: Sunvalley,NV

Damn I've tried to tell people that no more people are dieing than normal !!! The only difference is that now people are aware of the death count ,because there being told !!! Where as before the Virus, no one talked about how many people died each year !!!
