@CT_Bergstrom 3) I think it is pretty close to indefensible for ACIP to define a broad enough group of pre-existing medical conditions to encompass 100+ million people as being on the same pedestal as being age 65+. Even their own data shows the risks aren't remotely comparable. — PolitiTweet.org

@CT_Bergstrom 2) I can see various arguments for essential workers based on reducing infections and achieving herd immunity faster. Can also see some ethical and economic arguments. I wish essential workers were defined more precisely though (eg as workers in close contact with other people). — PolitiTweet.org

@WesPegden @BallouxFrancois I think it's also recognizing that the vaccine distribution process is intrinsically political (in part). I don't mean that in a pejorative sense. Just that these are complicated resource-allocation decisions, and politics (defined both broadly and narrowly) come to bear on them. — PolitiTweet.org
