Should people who contribute to making life enjoyable, such as entertainers and athletes,be put into the priority group? The Covid-19 pandemic so far has costed nearly two hundreds thousands lives, most of whom are elderly and patients with chronic illnesses.

The long, eagerly-awaited news of vaccines that can effectively combat the Covid-19 virus have finally been confirmed. However, given the massive scale of the pandemic, inoculating even ten percent of the world’s population would take 2-3 years. To make the best use of the limited supply of vaccines, the head of World Health Organization asks his staff to develop a priority list and answer the following questions.
