Who are these "groups that are unable to get vaccinated"?

Something I keep hearing when people are talking about the vaccine is that we need to get to herd immunity to protect groups who are unable to get the vaccine themselves. Who does that include?

One example is people who have received organ transplants and are on lifetime immunosuppressant drugs.

I'd broaden it out and say all immunocompromised individuals.  Kids too young to get it don't seem to be much at issue here, but they would normally fall on these lists.

The only difference between Asset Management and Investment Research is assets. I generally see somebody I know on TV on Bloomberg/CNBC etc. once or twice a week. This sounds cool, until I remind myself that I see somebody I know on ESPN five days a week.
 

Vegans (most of them, I don’t want to generalize) can still medically eat eggs, they’re not allergic. If they choose not to take it, it’s their call but I was raised vegetarian (for religious reasons) and I know my parents would have gotten all of us vaccinated even if it was beef-based.
