Median age in ICU for covid is ~65, median age in hospital is ~62.
So vaccinating 62+ cuts hospital utilization in half.

Still, you are changing strategy based on hope, not data. Bad idea.

Wow. It still makes a certain amount of sense to me to place 'front line' medical staff at or near the front of the line. (even if using the 'deserves it' reasoning) But all of these other categories ahead of those who clearly have the worst outcomes?
It'll be interesting to watch the charts on numbers of deaths and how they relate to what strategy each state uses.
I wonder what level of accountability there will or won't be for these decisions. I have a guess...

We have likely made up risk that really doesn’t exist.

Show credible data that contradicts Fauci. My suspicion is this is likely the only thing Biden can do differently than Trump and perhaps claim victory.
But what happened to following the experts' advice? Gone like a fart in the wind.

Excellent. Now let’s get that Astra Zeneca vaccine out so that we can life back to normal ASAP. At least to those willing. I’m in. Heck I would take the J&J one today.

Doctors are split and developers are answering the wrong question.
