Yep! I got it at kroger. They were
supposed to be having shots from 10-2, but
I decided to show up early just in case.
I left here at 8:45 and got there about 9.
When I got in line, there were already
200 people ahead of me! I was the very
last person to get the shot. They ran out
on me and gave me the last one! They
counted back in line and told me that I
was last and told everyone after me to
sign up on a waiting list in case they got
another shipment in a couple of weeks. So
they weren't even supposed to start giving
them until 10, but they ran out at 9!! I
didn't get mine until 1:30, and got home
at 2.

Yeah everybody had chairs. The other 200
people there were in the "over 65"
category, so some of them needed the
chairs more than me!

I heard that the flu vaccine is so scarce
that they are prioritizing people who
should get it.. Like people who it would
devastate more.. Aids patients, elderly
and children are first in line obviously.
