here's a quote by emmanuel that sheds light on the old people don't matter so much
Emanuel, 63, wrote that "by 75, creativity, originality and productivity are pretty much gone for the vast, vast majority of us" in his essay titled "Why I Hope to Die at 75."

Here is what gnadfly wrote:
"while the supposed incoming biden team doesn't want to vaccinate our older people but wants to send the vaccine to other countries so that younger, poorer or people of color come before our elderly"
That is untrue. Even Emmanuel does not state that. The statement by Emmanuel was from 2014 and in no way is relatable to the distribution of the COVID-19 vaccine today. I have a 101 year old relative in a nursing home and they will be getting their vaccines in a matter of days.
