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.

Second shot of Pfizer a few days ago, fist one was fine, second one was a doozy. Out of commission for a full day and a half and I don’t get sick easily so I wonder if I’m more susceptible to covid. I didn’t take Tylenol until midway through the second day which was a mistake cause I felt way better after. Start dosing Tylenol right away and follow the dosages for at least 48 hours. Should help dramatically.

Call me a conspiracy theorist all you want, you won’t change my mind. There is too much evidence that is stacked against them.

Are any of you getting the vaccine in the state you are based, rather than the state you live in? Do you have to prove residency or can you just show your company ID to prove you're based there? State I live in is slower than molasses, whereas the one I'm based in is trucking along. Thanks.

To be safe, in your domicile state, just bring something that shows you work there.
