Rigorous verification will take time and slow things down. Lax verification will make things a free-for-all. I don't think these plans are well thought out. If you're going to have subcategories, make them narrow, specific and easy to verify (e.g. "public school teachers"). — PolitiTweet.org

And you know what'll probably be worse? Having hard-to-define categories like essential workers or pre-existing conditions. There are lots of borderline cases (and some people who will try to cheat the system). Who's going to verify who qualifies? Big administrative burden. — PolitiTweet.org

That's why I favor simple, age based systems e.g. Tier 1) Age 75+, health care workers, nursing homes, severely immunocompromised Tier 2) Age 65-74 Tier 3) Everyone else Within tiers, reduce queues by creating groups based on randomly chosen month of birth or last digit of SSN. — PolitiTweet.org
