Should athletes get preferential treatment in getting the vaccine because of the amount of taxes they pay?

    They're the healthiest ones, therefore they should be the last ones.

    A vaccine is not based on income...........it is based on age.

    The amount of tax you pay should not be a consideration at all.

    In the UK the order of vaccination is by age. Eldest first but including medical staff. Taxes are irrelevant and should be.

    Since the Marketing Director at my local hospital got it on day #1, can't pretty much anyone get it?

    - he's not old

    - he works from home

    - before covid when he worked at the hospital he had no patient contact, very little interaction with medical staff.

    If athletes want it, let them have it.

    No, especially since they're the ones least likely to die from it.  Obviously those most at risk should get it first.
