    How is people’s experience this week, trying to schedule boosters? Still hearing of people having to wait multiple weeks, into January, for an appointment. Has it gotten easier in some places?https://twitter.com/zeynep/status/1470202828954157057 …

    Despite huge supply in the US, I’m hearing from people in many states that it’s not easy for the elderly to get a booster appointment now. Many places are full, apparently for weeks. I can’t confirm all the reports but seems important to look into? Especially outside few cities. https://twitter.com/NathanStall/status/1470181442273558528 …

        It's walk-in in Utah. Which isn't necessarily a good sign.

        Basically impossible to find an appointment in the Bay Area.

        On the bright side, likely from tremendous uptake. Not sure if you have Kaiser, but my Bay Area friend said he just wandered by the clinic and they fit him in no problem. Cattle call Kaiser style.

        Costco had a 5-day wait, so I checked out my primary-care physician. Next day, no problem

        No problems where I live in small town FL; COVID vax are readily available. 40 appointments for booster injections are available tomorrow at my local Walgreens, and there are many other providers. Haven’t heard of any vaccine shortages from friends and family living elsewhere.
