https://www.cato.org/publications/commentary/vaccine-prioritization-mistake-why-are-we-doling-out-doses-health-status

Mostly a summary of the difficulty of handing out doses strictly according to health status.  Their conclusion is that it's mostly folly to attempt to do so (I don't completely agree) and that the criteria for vaccinating should be simplified and minimized (I do agree with that idea).

folks should have priority, but... if not enough of those are stepping forward, get the vaccine into the next group of arms

Where my wife was vaccinated was a Charlie Foxtrot, but I was thinking about how complicated this whole thing really is and no one has done it before at this scale.

Other countries are having similar issues, Israel has done well.

It seems reasonable the percentage of the population here now with some resistance is of consequence.

I think we can conservatively say that we've had 3 times as many cases as reported. I think the number is higher than that, but let's say it's 3.

25,600,000 reported cases => 76,800,000 actual cases. Combine that with (coincidentally) 25,600,000 vaccinations and we have 102,400,000 with some sort of immunity.

We're truly getting there. If we can hit that 100,000,000 shot target, I'd say we're home free.

I just purchased tickets to a concert in mid-May.  It's outdoors and set up for limited capacity, but it'll still be several hundred people.  It'll be the first relatively large public "gathering" of any kind I'll attend since December 2019.

I conservatively estimate that 1/3 of us have immunity. Be happy.
