It seems like people are talking about 2 different kinds of nets here.
The electric net, like from premier, and the aviary type that can be cut to size

I'm not sure how much difference it makes to drop the age of eligibility. ...at least here.
CA has a population of 39.5 million people. It's consistently the one of the top 3 states hit by the virus and our illness count exceeds every other country on the globe. Some 3 million doses of vaccine have been delivered to the state and only about 25% of those have been administered.
So far my daughter is one of about 6,000 people in SoCal who've been vaccinated. Thank god!!! A retired doctor friend who hasn't seen a patient in 20 years has as well. He admits he pulled the "doctor" card and he managed to get his shots. They're the only people I know who've been vaccinated so far.
I read an article that talked about younger people waiting outside the hospital at the end of the night for vaccines. The vaccines are being thrown out instead of used, so they pay the medical staff to give it to them. The article mentions a need for a “next in line” list to prevent wasted vaccines.
Yes, I saw about the fine. What a terrible waste!because they would be fined if given to anyone else.
Here in NY they are not doing very good vaccinating. Hopefully things change last Mon our Gov finally was convinced to change the rules. It was only healthcare professionals and those in nursing homes, nobody else and no other elderly. Not enough wanted the vaccine so every time they opened a vial for the one or two that showed up they had to throw the rest away because they would be fined if given to anyone else.
I bet we never hear how many doses went to waste. Went to waste because of govtYes, I saw about the fine. What a terrible waste!
Since we all get our news differently, and not necessarily the same reports, here is a link to a similar story.

Better than going to waste.A 22yo my husband knows was in a pharmacy that got caught with one of those opened-but-not-emptied vials. The pharmacist asked him if he wanted to be vaccinated. He said but I'm not eligible. The pharmacist said you are if I'm going to have to throw it away. He got his first shot and a ticket that said he was eligible for the second shot.
This whole mess has been on big learning curve. There have been lots of mistakes and miscalculations, for sure - some from rushing and some from over-cautiousness. Let's hope we can learn those lessons quickly and get the proverbial ball rolling at a "higher rate of forward momentum!"46% may be about right if the 2ND doses don't come in as fast as we were expecting though... It's mismanagement for sure, and heads should roll because exceptions should have been accounted for, but at this rate with our current vaccine stockpile we may need those hold backs if supplies dry up as people internationally rush to vaccinate due to the new strain.
Only time will tell at this rate.
