Higher vaccination priority for the extremely clinically vulnerable at all ages.
As a member of the "high risk" group, I am calling on the UK Government to include the "high risk" at all ages, in the second priority group for vaccination after NHS workers and care home staff and residents, along with and not after over 70s who are classed as lower "moderate" risk by the NHS.
Extremely clinically vulnerable/high risk people are your teacher, your bus driver, your student, your waitress. We make a daily choice between becoming homeless or risking our lives to work. The "high risk" group were the only group advised to take more precautions than the general public during England's current lockdown, while over 70s (moderate risk) followed only the general advice. We are classed as higher risk yet much lower on the priority list. We cannot be an afterthought. Protect us.
