In my state (Texas), you can get it if you’re over 18 (or is it 17?) and have one of the CDC’s defined high risk conditions. One of those is a BMI 30 or greater. A lot of Texans have a BMI 30 or greater. Just sayn’.
As far as other reasons goes, various state stuff I read recently (sorry, didn’t keep the link from when I read it) indicated some states are grouping transportation workers into group 1b and are doing 1b now (I think CDC has transportation workers in 1c though, certainly lower priority than 1b).
And I’m sure there are other reasons that people on APC can qualify right now. Just some I’ve noticed.
