Essential? Interesting question. Even more interesting is who thinks they're special enough to determine who and what is to be considered essential.  As far as poor countries, again arms are arms. The crew's arms are just as important as my arm and that of the arms of what/who you consider to be poor.  

If you're a country like the Philippines with daily cases at a new high and little vaccine why would you give a priority to cruise ship workers who will leave the country as soon as they can?  Better to control spread at home by focusing on the elderly and other vulnerable segments of the population.   As far as shots go all arms aren't equal.

There may be an increase of COVID cases in Texas, but probably it will be more pronounced along South Padre Island area and other spring break destinations than along the border. 

 

Huh? SOUTH Padre Island is pretty much south.

Well we'll have to disagree. No biggee. Until the world hits a level... every arm is important.  Especially those arms that will be traveling the world that could potentially spread the disease.
