more like March/April.

Seems to be four kinds of people these days:
- Those "dying" to get a shot and don't mind joining the feeding frenzy
- Those who would like a shot, but want to wait for the feeding frenzy to settle down
- Those who are skeptical - fence sitters
- Anti-vaxxers

Interesting conversations sometimes !!

You didn’t list those who are in Chemo, or other treatment, and their Physicians are saying NO.
Those who are pregnant
And the many who’s physician, saying NO because of severe reaction.

They don’t belong in the anti group, or maybe you think the physicians are in the secret anti group.

Fair point: The "forbidden" group. I guess within those
, some are anti-vaxxers who found an excuse!?

Interesting you think pregnant, cancer, anaphylactic is an excuse. I’m sure pregnant would not work for you, ( does it really matter that no study’s have been done on the unborn fetus) but cancer, and death from a reaction, I wouldn’t wish on anyone so they couldn’t get the vaccine.

Those who think those are excuses, than the person could care less the outcome of the life that may change.

But on an up note, those who are told to wait, that’s one more vaccine for those chasing it, or if those who are told to wait, and take it anyway it could be just a loss of life added to the list. So win-win in your anti vaccine thoughts

No intent to offend anyone. Just observing....

A smart company and web designer would allow you to lock an appointment time/date followed by your name and other information!
Why doesn’t anyone setting up websites understand this?

Because they probably can't afford smart web designers when the product availability is unknown, it changes every day, and there doesn't appear to be a profit motive. If they could sell the vaccine, it would be handled a lot differently.

After waiting on Publix's web site for over an hour with 4 computers and 2 cells, my sister called the Lake County number list on todays paper, and got 2 appointments for tomorrow at the Lake Square Mall.

The Lake County system doesn't appear to be any better than the Publix system. Getting through on the phone is virtually impossible.

Which vaccine is Lake County using?

Apparently, none of these vaccine providers care about people's time or respect a basic first come first served courtesy. They are fine with people waiting on a website for hours or calling a number that is always busy, or accepting a call back number, and then never calling back. But, if you happen to contact them at a lucky time, you will get an appointment. I was lucky to get an appointment at a Publix two weeks ago by just checking the website in the middle of the day. But, I have tried to help others get an appointment and have had some luck, but I have found out that none of the providers are treating people fairly. It's disgraceful.

We logged in Publix at 6:00 am with 2 computers, 2 cell phones. Got appt screen but no luck finding any spots. Called the Eventbrite number at 9:00 am and after 162 attempts with phone was able to make 2 apts for tomorrow at Volusia County Fair Grounds.

Apparently, it doesn't matter. CDC is saying you can use one and then the other for the booster. And they are saying the second one can come up to 6 wks after the first. Makes one wonder whether they even have an idea of what this supposed vaccine is all about. I am not questioning the science of it, just their ability to understand their test results/figures. Some say it works for all versions of COVID and some say it will only work for less than a year and have to be updated. I am glad that they were able to release it so expeditiously, but quick does not have to be sloppy, does it? There is a lot of unknowns, but that does not mean that one should discount the validity of the serum(?) if you can call it that. Since there has been very, very few side effects and supposedly only one or two deaths related to the vaccination, at least we know that it is "harmless" so far. TBD (to be determined). Hope that did not sound negative. As far as I am concerned, they can give out Vit B12 shots and tell us we are good to go so we can remove our masks.

Does anyone wonder if they will get a second dose, at their date, or days, maybe weeks after.
