If you really wanted to breed a race of super humans, you would simply have one dose for every 3 people. Then the all three people of similar weight class fight to the death to receive the shot. Hot Big boobed women however would be exempt from pit fighting and be delegated to be the round card girls at the fights.

I concur with this plan; however, we'd have to come up with a boob:waist ratio that we could all find acceptable. I mean, lots of larger ladies have big boobs and it wouldn't be right if they were hogging all the vaccine over those with a more desirable boob:waist ratio. I see that you included the word "hot" before "big boobed women" but I would like this to be crystal clear before we finalize the master plan. NO FAT CHICKS.

Why do young professionals with a post-secondary degree get priority over tradespeople?
You gonna sit in your office during said epidemic and design when there is nobody left to go build it? What about mechanics? Electricians? Demolition? Professional Drivers?
Your complete disregard for this sector in your breakdown is certainly revealing of your character, imo.

I think we need to view some examples of acceptable boob:waist ratios.
For scientific purposes, of course.

As a young professional with a degree, I agree with you. In fact, I would put farmers in the top group. I wouldn't care if they dropped out in grade 6 as long as they understood how to grow food.
You would need a mix of both really.

I have politicians at #1 and celebs high on the list for public image. If Jarome Iginla, or Christian Bale died from (theoretical new strain of flu, lets say) Elk Flu, there would be more widespread panic than if I died of Elk Flu. I don't know what this says about society, but we move as public figures tell us to move... some people treat Beyonce and Green Day (band) like gospel, or just look at what a few small words from Darryl Sutter and Ken King will help us move.
The idea of having celebs/public figures up in the list was something I thought about last night, the upsides and downsides of having them there. What is the benefit of having public figures healthy versus the backlash from the figurative farmers-with-pitchforks? I still sway back and forth on this, but I'm leaning towards the former rather than the latter.

I'd have to agree with both. I can see why intellect is valued over skills, as one is more valuable than the other in this decade, but I'm not sure that would necessarily be the case in a post-epidemic. I can also see how some may see more value in an educated society versus one with the trades in a post-epidemic society... but I'd say at the end, skills have more value than the intellect. Of the 3 noted, I'd have in priority order:
1. TOP scientests (high end talent is tough to recruit... by top end, I mean those with a PhD that are working in a technical field)
2. Farmers
3. Tradesman
4. Scientists/Engineers
(Not sure why the disregard comment, I mentioned "young professionals" as those with pose secondary education which includes the trades. I thought this would be even more clear when I mentioned degrees - university, and certificates - trades. This whole H1N1 flue shot hysteria has everyone in a frantic mood.)

I was a little annoyed and if you were a poster I didn't know, then I probably would have taken it more personally. I guess reputation of the poster goes a long way to my response.

Not sure I'd agree here. In a post-epidemic world, riots would have destroyed so much infrastructure that trying to repopulate the world in an accelerated fashion would cause problems. I think there would need to be the right ratio of women:man (possibly 60:40) but I wouldn't say to the order of 90:10.

She has big boobs and a thin waste, based on our criteria she is saveable.
If you want me to go based on attitude we would be stuck with a bunch of fatties and sickies.
Is that what you want? A world of fatties and sickies?
