No it wasn't but as I stated, there are far more people trying to book appointments than there are doses available. I have had people tell me that they went to sites that are administering the vaccine without appointments and waited in line for hours. In some cases, after waiting for hours, they were told that there were no more dose available. Personally, I'd rather sit in front of my computer in my pajamas drinking tea for a few hours than to wait at some location that I've driven to and wait in line in the hopes of getting a vaccine.
