This sounds wasteful. If it’s happening on a daily basis then they’re sending too many vaccines to these vaccination places. Surprised people aren’t lining up for unused vaccines even so early on.
Israel claims they haven't had to throw out vaccines yet. They last for 5 days in the fridge and (as shown here) when there are surplus it is easy to find people who want them.

@Ergel seems to be suggesting otherwise.

I got the message at 8:15 last night, someone then posted they got a vaccine and at 9:14 someone posted that they were out.
So it could be they have efficiently been getting the word out to people to come get the vaccine before they are discarded
Life isn't about checking the boxes. Nobody cares.

Without prying - are you high risk? Because you're definitely not old enough ;)

I don't know anything about him but my understanding is that nursing homes and similar facilities have access to doses and some are giving to friends and family.

I actively searched for availability and made sure to be there when a close connection at CHEMED informed me there were expiring doses available at the end of the day.

I was actually at the site and prepped for the vaccine last week but they refused to inject me as I was within 14 days of the flu shot.

I think anyone who tries hard enough and is flexible at this point can get the vaccine, at least in Lakewood and Brooklyn. All of my relatives who tried hard enough have been vaccinated with at least one dose.

Can they guarantee a second dose?

Isn't the current protocol that for every dose given they have to have a second dose for them or they did away with that and are focusing on first doses?

It was until it turned out the Federal government told the states they have doses reserved for them and it turned out they didn't.

 ;)Somebody respected the Federal government's viewpoint too much.

If you're having trouble finding in NY/NJ, you could always fly privately to the Yukon and get vaccinated with the local indigenous people like this couple. A shame they're going to get away with a measly $900 fine, especially after they were stupid enough to ask for a ride to the airport afterward. Wonder what will be with their second doses.

How can you get one in Brooklyn? Aren’t there eligibility restrictions that limit that, with a fine for doses administered to ineligible people?
