What population is NOT getting the vaccine?
They are starting with the military this week, I’m thinking anyone here who is active duty or has family/friends on a base should help get the word out...

Ahhhhhh, the middle east like Iran, Iraq e in other words muslims.
Older people are last in line. If they die...it can be accountable to 100 things at their age. I’m sure they won’’t be testing any sick folks anytime soon.
Logically speaking, the elderly are usually the first to line up for vaccines (flu & pneumonia). When I worked for the doctors, it was always our older patients that would start calling in Sept asking when we were going to get our shots in. The year that so many were contaminated - 2004 I think? - and they were rationed, we only got 50 doses. So the nurse and I, under Dr’s orders, called our most compromised, offering them first dibs. Those with COPD, hx of pulmonary or cardiac issues etc. He wanted them to get the shot if they wanted, first. When we got our next batch, we did the same thing. He even did housecalls on a few that had a lot of trouble getting out, so they could receive it. Most of our younger patients didn’t even ask about it, knowing there was a shortage, when we told them we were out they just shrugged and said they’d take their chances. Just my experience.
