When can regular bros get the vaccine? They still thinking April?

I feel like I am at the airport gate, flying coach, with a seat in the middle of the plane, with no status at all, just waiting for the "OK the last few of you can finally go ahead and board the plane" announcement.
I would love to be proven wrong but I don�t expect to get the first dose until June as part of the general population in NC. We�ve vaxxed 1MM people with the first dose to date, which is actually not too bad, but Cooper even said yesterday that we still don�t have enough supply for all healthcare workers and 65+ population. At this point we are getting 145,000 doses a week which is roughly 2MM people over the next 12 weeks. J&J approval really helps since it�s only one shot but they�ve also said they are running behind expected production volume.
I know Gottlieb and other well-informed people seem really confident on April but I�m just not seeing it.
believe the number is closer to 250,000 per week.
CDC reported North Carolina had 1.25 million doses on 1/26
seven days later, 1.49 million
another 7 days later (yesterday) 1.72 million
NC dashboard does not show historical allocations (that I see) but NC has vaccinated (at least) >195k doses each of the past 4 weeks, and over 1 million over that time frame

I'm 71, which puts me in 1b and I live in Virginia.
This is from my health district on 2/3: "We are working in Phase 1a and Phase 1b to vaccinate our community. Due to the size of Phase 1b, we are unable to vaccinate everyone who qualifies quickly. Our prioritization is aligned with the state's categories. As we receive additional vaccine in the coming weeks and months, we will be working through the additional categories of Phase 1b. We expect it will take us several months to work through all of Phase 1b."
Obesity gets someone into 1b (looks like Virginia defaults to CDC guidelines), and that's 32% of adult Virginians, probably 60 million U.S. adults
But 2&2 said that if everyone just ate healthy and lost weight, they wouldn't have anything to worry about. Shows what he knows.
