Even Marion county had over 1700 spots and they disappeared pretty fast. I was willing to take anything that was within a couple hours of driving, one way. Didn't even get the chance to choose one.
Like I said before, someone got the vaccination spots so at least we know that there will be less folks vulnerable to the virus. Hopefully, we can get ours before they open it for the younger age groups. We have family coming down in March that have all recently recovered from their virus infection. It only lasted a few days with them, but they are young.
Good luck to those that are wanting to get they chance at being vaccinated so that they can return to some semblance of normality. The hunt continues.........

And thanks to those that are passing on valuable information.
The site goes "live" at 6 am, so being on the site at 3:30 or anytime prior to 6 am doesn't help you. Also, the site doesn't seem to establish a first come first served "line". It seems to operate more like a lottery where you just need to be lucky enough to be selected from the site when a space opens up. Also, the "book an appointment" box doesn't show up until you win the lottery and are instructed to provide personal information. These are just my observations.
