It makes sense when you think about it. Without the rules, there's excuse to -not- find the people the vaccine is meant for and use it yourself. Anyone who thinks that this would not happen doesn't know human nature very well. They are welcome to post situations where such excuses haven't been taken advantage of. I'll take lack of replies as acceptance of my point.

If there were a list of "people the vaccine is meant for", I'd tend to agree with your point. As it happened there was no such list, and his attempts to find front-line workers to give the vaccine to failed. He was unable to find "people the vaccine is meant for", so I'm willing to give him some leeway there.

People who don't give a hoot about the rules are more prone to be spreaders anyway. After medical staff, we have the prioritization of who should get vaccinated completely inverted.

He did attempt to find the 'people the vaccine is meant for'. He just wasn't able to find enough on a tight timeline. In my opinion that makes this, at least in part, a fault of those above him. There should be a standby list with a clear expectancy of urgency. If you get a call at 2am, you either show up or get passed by. Fill it with all the front-line workers in the county or something like that first, then start pulling in the public. There should be _no_ shortage of people willing to take this, we're just spending so much time worrying about who gets it and not enough time worrying about ensuring that every last dose is effectively used and not wasted. Edit: Also, I only replied so you would realize that you don't have implicit agreement.

"I'll take lack of replies as acceptance of my point". Sure, buddy, you do that. Whatever helps you feel clever.
