Age would be the major factor (as younger people generally have more 
years left to spread disease). Income and wealth are secondary factors 
(wealthier people tend to live longer), but the impact would be small 
compared to age, so for the sake of saving money on the admin and 
logistics, just do it by age. Or given that we can't expect children to 
make an informed decision (and they're the ones who can cause most 
damage by not having the injection) just force it on children and make 
everyone else pay the same (again, to make logistics easier).

Just in case you're wondering, this is not meant to be serious, just 
looking it at purely from a logic / economics point of view :-)
