That isn’t the Dems logic here though, because Hispanics are also included. One could argue that their statistically higher death rates could be due to higher rates of poverty. But then why not just say we are prioritizing the treatment for the poor (sorta classist but w/e)
The logic escapes me, but it’s not being done like this everywhere to my knowledge

Its really easy. Who is more likely to spread it? The people who are retired, stay at home all day, dont have to go to work every day, etc.
Or
The work force made up of everyone else. The people who travel the world professionally and personally all the time, work a nine to five around other people, go home to your family, interact with customers/clients etc. Then their customers go home to their families and their families then go to school to interact with more kids who go home to interact with their parents who interact with their co-workers/clients who go home to their families and on and on and on and on
Makes a lot of sense when you look at it like that. The people who are most vulnerable are the ones actually out in the world and in the work force interacting with people one after another.
Then, if the work force is vaccinated, the old people that interact with them on their shopping trips are less likely to get covid. Unless you declined the vaccine.
