It clearly depends which area you are in. All the over 50s on my street are now done so am sure within 2 weeks they will be moving onto the over 40s. But the country will never move uniformly. That would be the most stupid thing to do given how every area is different. Just crack on.
At this point even though its grossly unfair, the fact that it appears to be so difficult to get group 6 done because of the paperwork, just doing as quickly as possible via age seems sensible. It does seem by via can just been hammered through much more easily. And although i think police and teachers theoretically should have been prioritised, in practice from what I've heard locally i do think its far more efficient to do by age and will be quicker for many who are vulnerable this way any.
I do think Wales and Scotland are going to have particular issues because of distance /remoteness and Westminster playing silly buggers. And that London will power through ages much more quickly because of a much lower uptake. Neither of which will help national consistency over ages getting the vaccine but thats very hard and going strictly by age risks slowing the entire program down significantly which in itself is a risk to those more vulnerable.
I think no one can reasonably argue that the vaccine roll out isn't being done quickly enough. There are certainly flaws and issues with access for some of the most vulnerable but if they require home visits we cannot afford to sit around waiting for that before younger groups are done. Both in health and economic terms.
Just bang em out and get as many jabs in arms done per day as is possible as that in itself seems to be helping to bring down transmission and hospitalisations. We need as many people as possible done before 8th March and numbers start to go up again initially before vaccine rollout hits that critical mass.
