I feel that you need another option... I am eager to get vaccinated, but am not yet eligible to schedule one. I feel like Not getting vaccinated makes me sound anti-vax.
“With sorrow—for this Court, but more, for the many millions of American women who have today lost a fundamental constitutional protection—we dissent,”
I didn't have an option to click. I'm planning to get vaccinated but still have to wait my turn. I have put myself on the list at multiple places & just waiting for my turn to schedule an appt.

Ugh, yes! I can't figure out how to edit the poll though.
No option for 'not in an eligible group yet' so I just clicked the last one.
We had heard that AZ would be opened to 45+ on April 1, then yesterday, the state announced that the state run sites would be opened to 16+ starting TOMORROW (all other/county run places 18+ on April 1). I heard similar announcements about UT and NV. Apparently they realized that in a couple of weeks it will be too hot for the volunteers to stand outside for a 8 hour shift.
I just got my first yesterday of Pfizer. My pcp's office sent me a text last Wednesday telling me I was now eligible and to make an appointment in my portal.
My husband should be eligible but he didn't receive a similar message and is unable to make a vaccine appointment in his portal. He has his physical coming up though so he hopes if he's not vaccinated by then, his doctor can change whatever she needs to in his chart to make it happen.
How did it go? I get mine this week and am a little nervous about the side effects.
I only had a sore arm until 23 hours after the shot when I became super tired, my leg muscles hurt, and just felt worn out. I would not have been able to work the way I felt. That lasted for about 6-7 hours and then I was fine other than a bit of a sore arm. I heard it helped to be super hydrated so I drank a lot of Gatorade and water the day before my shot and water the day of.
ETA: I also had a lot of trouble sleeping Friday night. My cousin had the same issue.

Fully vaxxed, post waiting period. I feel exceptionally lucky that I was able to get the the J&J vaccine when I did. They opened my state to 16+ this week and it's....not going well.

My husband got his first dose last week at work. I work from home and have no risk factors, so I'm not eligible. My son and I will go as soon as we are eligible and can get an appointment. I'm kind of excited for him and I to do it together.
I’m waiting in line for my first dose right now!!!!
My entire extended family (spread across 5 states) are all fully vaccinated due to either age or profession. I have a lot of friends fully vaccinated because they work in healthcare or education. I feel like I’m really late but I know that I’m actually pretty early overall. DH won’t be eligible for another month though.

Fully vaxxed. I have a close local group of 6 friends and spouses that are also all either fully or partially vaxxed. I'm surprisingly happy with how La. is rolling out the vaccines. In my group of friends, a few got it due to their jobs but the rest was because La opened up health conditions that included BMI, smoking, etc and that covered the rest of us.
Getting my first dose tomorrow. Pfizer. I was totally chill about waiting my turn until I found out about my cousin. I want to be able to see her now that she's discontinued treatment. So...5 weeks until I'm fully good to go. I guess it's possible that J&J could be available to me next week and then I'd be fully covered sooner, but without knowing for sure I don't want to take the chance of not getting this one now.
My husband and I have both been fully vaccinated for almost 2 months because we're frontline healthcare providers. If I wasn't, I would have been eligible for about a month because I'm obese and hypertensive.
