  1. older adults’ resident in a care home and care home workers1
  2. all those 80 years of age and over and health and social care workers1
  3. all those 75 years of age and over
  4. all those 70 years of age and over
  5. all those 65 years of age and over
  6. high-risk adults under 65 years of age
  7. moderate-risk adults under 65 years of age
  8. all those 60 years of age and over
  9. all those 55 years of age and over
  10. all those 50 years of age and over
  11. rest of the population (priority to be determined)2
That is the rumoured list as it stands from a outline proposal in September. It critically depends on how many doses you get, how quickly, and how easily the get distributed.
Also as other have said there is a lot we don't know yet about just how effective this is. This morning Brazil has halted trials of SinoVax over saftey concerns and AZ had a scare the other week.
This is a massive step forward but honestly you are looking well into 2021 to have anything like normality......
