The vice president, Senate majority leader, House speaker, surgeon general, and members of Con-gress were among the first people vaccinated against Covid-19 in the United States. The pres-ident-elect, incoming first lady, vice president-elect, and her husband were also vaccinated in the first phase. Yet prioritization frameworks created by expert panels and adopted by states do not grant government leaders any special status, and giving them priority raises important questions of fairness and transparency. As vaccination pro-ceeds, will other political or institutional lead-ers, or even celebrities and elite athletes, decide that prioritization plans don’t apply to them?
