[quote=Anonymous]Timely discussion as there was just some debate about this on our neighborhood listserv. Someone had organized a waitlist for the local hospital- essentially a list of age-eligible residents that the hospital could call on short notice if they have leftover vaccines at the end of the day. Supposedly people are being chosen randomly. Now someone is upset that no one thought to rank individuals on this list and want to ask the hospital to choose the AA/Hispanic persons first rather than at random. Not really sure why some see the need to split hairs on this as while the younger families in the area are more diverse, the older, age-eligible residents are mostly white anyway. But they are probably thinking ahead to more people being eligible. [/quote]
