Well, Bill Gates doesn't need to worry about me anymore.

I got my Pfizer shot this morning so he will rest easier knowing where I am at all times.

In all seriousness, the shot was painless and so far I have no soreness at the injection site. The vaccinator said I should expect to have a sore arm. I'm a little tired but I went without coffee this morning so doubt it's injection related.

If you are looking for an appointment you need to just keep trying. The process is random it seems as to when appointments open up. I found mine through a local covid group. A member posted that appointments were available at this location and I was on line in the group at the right time to get in...The 200 appointments were gone in 15 minutes.

they are co-ordinating it very well. I registered online, had confirmation within 24 hours and appointment time info a week later. The set up for the shots at the clinic was really well done, too. It was cold and rainy. When I pulled in, I was told to park and text 'arrival'. Within a couple of minutes I had a reply to come on in. No waiting in the rain or anything

I got the email for my second shot yesterday. It isn't until 7:30 pm so they are working some long days.
