I couldn't bring myself to risk going into the building for an hour or more to wait for the shot. It was a madhouse the day I went. People were to close to one another. It was disgusting.

I hope everyone else who goes to this location has a much better experience than I did. Sometimes you just have to maker the rough call and do what you have to do.
That is some serious willpower that you showed leaving. I assume that it was some kind of 1st come, 1st served" non-systematic offering. I blame Florida for not going with vaccinating the over-85, then the over-75, and THEN the over-65. There are too many over-65 for the early supplies of vaccine. That is how EXTREME frustration and cheating occur. And people lose confidence in their government and turn into anarchists or conspiracy lovers. They end up believing NOTHING and then are ripe for government overthrow!
