A GMR staff member said their priority is those who had scheduled appointments, and 2nd doses. They are sending out text and email, but many response codes are not being used. After x amount of time, (didn’t say amount) and resending code, (didn’t state how many times) before they could move on. Original appointment for 1/24

Third site I have attended. First two, signage in place in multiple areas, directed to next opening, Computer used for info, card filled out, asked to verify name correct on card, injection , then sent to a 15 minute waiting area. All cars lined next to each other, with their time on windshield. 5 staff each walking in front of their allotted cars. Then at your given time, staff came to your car, asked questions for any issues, (did think looked a little flushed),gave instructions in case there was a problem later. Removed the time card, and sent you on your way.

GMR map showed lot behind Marshals, ( if you are new to the area, it’s behind Fresh Market) no signs, other than a sheriff sitting in car with lights on.
First person verified your email, second person sent you to one of the 2 tents. ID asked for, by 2 people, card given to person( both names spelled wrong, but they were ok with it. Third person took your time card told you when to leave, honk horn if there was a problem, I am guessing whoever honked with 19 cars bumper to bumper, it could be a challenge. . Then sent to 5 lines of cars. No staff at this point, you left when you choose to. Just a little different experience than other 2 sites.
