There is no possible way to target superspreaders, a lot of spreading happens in work or private situations we can’t know in advance who will spread it there. And the possible age groups are too large so we will see no effect immediately with the limited supply of vaccine. Starting with the eldest and those who are most likely to die from COVID should bring mortality down in the next 16 weeks. And afterwards we can work on reaching herd immunity.

To be frank, the people most likely to be super spreaders have mostly become infected by now and achieved natural immunity. 30+% of people in large portion of the country have likely been infected [0]. There are certainly some regions with much lower than average numbers that could theoretically still benefit from this strategy, but I agree that targeting would be very difficult and controversial.
