You call it meaningless but I fully expect that the rollout unanimously considered to be best by the JCVI, all 4 countries CMO and the CEO of Astrazeneca ought to save thousands or tens of thousands of lives.

80% of fatalities are coming from the first 4 priority groups which the UK will have fully dosed once each by middle of February. Skipping half of them so you can give boosters to the other half quicker, against the medical advice being given in this country, seems to me to be a terrible, terrible idea that would risk thousands of extra lives a week being lost.

You act as if rigorously following the 3 week regimen is riskfree, its not it is risking the lives of the 7 million you don't bother vaccinating.
