not before your daughter and grandson. Surely they come first.
If you mean would I rather they treated my children/grandchildren before me, then yes - but it doesn't work like that and up to now none of us are ill/hospitalised.
From a purely ecologogical standpoint, there's an excellent case for removing all the current restrictions worldwide, refusing all treatment to anyone who catches Covid-19 and letting it wipe out a billion or so people. It would significantly strengthen the human gene pool and be consistent with natural evolution.

However I'm still not too keen on volunteering to become one of the billion ;-)
Of cause they do but I’m not going anywhere soon JJ xx

Having been totally self-isolated for 5 weeks so far, I would be a bit miffed if I got the virus (through food deliveries or whatever) but had to go behind (in the queue for treatment) any youth who had ignored all instructions re how to behave under current circumstances.
As the average life expectancy in the UK is into the 80s getting over 60s is not really a good innings.
I’ve a lot more I want to do see. Including my youngest Grandsons grow up.
Three score and ten shall be thine allotted year’s. Anymore is a bonus from my perspective.
