I'm in Washington State. I just happened to look and found a bunch of openings for 3 days on a Saturday. Boom. I jumped in. They filled up quick. It's really crazy when you consider the number of hours wasted by millions of people on a national level. And if you don't have a computer or internet.....

In our local system you have to make appointments at a site level and a specific time. And of course everything is full. You can't pick a time range and maximum distance. You can buy a car in the color you want that way, but not get vaccinated.
