I’m glad I’m not the one having to make that decision. It’s overly-simplistic to reduce it to those very stark terms I think. Some kids will get very ill, and ultimately the government is responsible to its electorate. And if it’s my kid, or your kid…

But certainly, some throttling-back of the vaccination rate when we get to children, in favour of allowing supplies to reach others, is probably defensible.
