Primary school pupils are more likely to die in an RTC on the way to
school than they are to die of Covid.

You need to be aware that many - including the young - can have pretty
severe conditions resulting from having Covid. And can be long lasting too
- maybe for the rest of that life. It's known as Long Covid, and no
accurate statistics available yet. Oddly one of the few people I know
personally who have had Covid and recovered suffers from it.

All the more reason to vaccinate the 10 to 35 YO's first. They have
longer to live and will cost the taxpayer far more if they end
up with longterm issues. Also means schools can re-open.
