I?
It is not I that insists on unused vaccine being allowed to expire for the sake of adherence to policy. I merely defend the prevailing policies that work to deliver equity. The values we have collectively adopted weigh equity as more important than lives. Not only in theory in some forum on the internet, but in actual practice.
As is only just. No?
Perhaps the good doctor will think harder about exactly to whom he is bestowing the benefits of his efforts in the future. There is an awful lot of injustice that has to be made good and we must all do our part, especially professionals such as doctors, who should be well equipped to make the correct distinctions and prioritize these factors in every facet of their profession.
