The ‘underclass’, in any western society, are I suppose the lowest of the low in society or the community. The poorest including the long term unemployed and the homeless.
I’m not entering into debate about why there are such people or who is to blame, that’s for elsewhere, but I’m surprised I had to explain.
I guess it’s because I spent many years working with the poorest children in Derby that I maybe have a greater awareness, and you are of course simultaneously right and surprisingly naive.

Yes, ‘anyone legally in-country will have the credentials to register for vaccination’...technically...but sadly such ‘entitlement’ doesn’t always extend to the homeless (address less), the intellectually challenged, the irresponsible, those with additional mental health issues, the lazy, the incapable or those who are just completely isolated. They represent the ‘underclass’ and, unfortunately - where the pandemic is concerned - the reality is...they breathe the same air as you and me.
