Are We Administering The Vaccine The Wrong Way Round?
Top of the list are the most vulnerable, mostly the elderly who are, in the main, isolating, but if as is reported the young are responsible for spreading the virus shouldn’t we be vaccinating them first, thereby safeguarding everyone else as well as allowing workers to get back to normal and hence, limiting the damage to the economy?

// So you vaccinate first those most at risk from catching it.// Which are those people who have to work 'out there' -not 90 year olds in basic lockdown.

Yet. I foresee a time, when countries start to see a significant percentage of the population inoculated (say 25%), where countries will say 'no protection, no entry'.
Then that won't worry me because as soon as I am able to, I will have the vaccination. But I'm not cancelling what arrangements I have already made (and paid for) to accommodate the NHS who may or may not get round to me any time soon.

we get millions of visitors from all over the world, not everywhere is going to vaccinate their citizens, nor can we ask them for some form of proof. So they bring it with them, we are going to take a long while to vaccinate those in the UK who want it. so we are open to infections from those coming to these shores are we not.
pixie: "I haven't seen those. But, isn't it the case you have to catch it first, for your body to kill it off? It won't just deflect off you, because of a vaccination?" - yes of course, that's the point. If the virus enters a vaccinated person it'd be like a Spurs fan going into an Arsenal pub on match day. It will be fought off by the immune system, yes a brief infection will be present but the virus will not be able to multiply and do the damage it does. The viruses will get swept up by the immune system or just die naturally.
//...nor can we ask them for some form of proof.//
Why ever not, emmie? That's what it seems may be required of us when we travel elsewhere (see above). There are lots of things the UK does not do when people visit these shores which are easily done elsewhere. Such as make arrangements for health bills to be paid as you step over the threshold of the hospital door. Other countries manage that quite easily and with the minimum of fuss. Why don't we? Proof of vaccination will be the same. We won't be able to manage it because it will be "too difficult."
//you're other arrangements must be mega important, and here's me thinking that the vaccine was top priority . How silly of me.//
Yes, very silly. Having the vaccine is on my "nice to have" list. It isn't my top priority. Are you seriously suggesting that I should cancel whatever arrangement I have for the foreseeable future so that I can wait at home for a phone call/text/letter or whatever that might or might not come, based on the results of a highly speculative prediction which nobody has any idea how accurate it might or might not be?

emmie I think they have air corridors established with countries considered "safe". Also the airports test departures when they know the destination demands a negative result on arrival so I assume there is a reciprocal arrangement.

Most of the worst damage the virus has done is to those in Care homes, the elderly, etc. Of course they should get the vaccination first. Giving the young the vaccination will likely have minimal impact on its spread, and minimal impact on those who are most at risk of serious illness or death.
The young should of course be vaccinated at some point, but not as a priority.
