If booster doses could be whisked over to unvaccinated people I would send them in a heartbeat. If they can’t they should be used here. The immunology and short-term clinical data show value. I’m scratching my head at the people trashing them. Uptake will magnify the benefits.

Definitely agree.

Once drugs have been shipped to terminal place, you can’t ship back. You don’t have good record of storage and accountability.

I think most parents, as individuals, would not turn down a vaccine for their teen, but if you were setting policy, you'd vaccinate healthcare workers and the elderly first—globally—and that's the public health perspective. Individually, yes, people will take the vaccine/booster.

Exactly all of this. The created reality of doses that “will be trashed” has led to indisputably misallocated vaccine. This is being pushed by some as the natural state of affairs.

yes there is something a little icky to me about “well Biden ensured these are trapped in America, guess I’d better get a booster” even though that’s exactly what I’m saying

The doses being stuck in America is a decision exogenous to me! I guess!
