In BC each age cohort was told to phone in and after a couple of basic questions (who are you? what is your date of birth? what is your postal code?) we were given an appointment. Time on phone including on hold, eight minutes seven seconds. But the appointment was a week later.
The actual appointment took about half an hour, including a 15 minute wait for fainting or turning purple with little green spots.
Then we went out for bagels.
Our cousin who had her 73rd birthday today, got her jab this morning. Oddly, although she was at a different location, she had the same doctor give the vaccination.
I understand that Ontario friends in their 50s are eligible but the system is very bad in part because the system wants to set an appointment for the second shot before the first is administered, and the software kicks the first one out when the second one is added. My younger sister (73 ) and her husband (71) had to go from Grimsby to Toronto to get an appointment.
