Guess we won't have to worry about our place in line for the vaccinations in The Villages. I used six open browsers today to get an invite on the Publix site. When I finally got on, all the close spots were taken so I managed to get my wife a spot in Deltona and when they allowed me to try a second spot, I got one at the same place for two hours later....tomorrow. I was going to wait for the VA, but just wanted to see if Publix would give me another spot so I took it when offered. We have family coming down next month to visit and they have all had the virus and survived, so I had to make sure that the wife had her shot. She is really concerned about how big the needle is. I have no idea why they are using such large needles, but I am not a medical person. I have given plenty of shots though, and give one to her every month and the needle is very small. Maybe someone on here knows why the vaccination needle is so large? And thick as well as long. No wonder folks are sore when they do it. The idea is usually to relax your arm as much as possible before they insert the needle and it won't hurt as much.
