How many people are we talking about?
- elevaet 5y agoNot sure on the numbers, but immunocompromised people (undergoing cancer treatment for example) often can't build antibodies after a vaccine. Those people are really vulnerable and depend on an immune herd.
- piotrkaminski 5y agoAt the moment? At least every person under 12, which is ~15% of the US population (and presumably similar elsewhere in the world).
- nostromo 5y agoPeople under 12 are at such a low Covid risk it’d be more ethical for us to send those vaccines abroad where they can be put to productive use saving lives.
