I was never asked if I was eligible either. I don't know anyone who was.
I think they just want to get shots in arms - which is awesome.
I signed up today for the "unclaimed" or leftover shots or whatever, hope to get an email soonish.
I've heard that you can stop in at Walgreen's towards the end of the day to see if they have any unclaimed shots.
That might work for the first one, but it seems likely that you wouldn't be able to get the second, using that method.
I had not thought about that, but wondering if since they administered the first shot - would they then just get you down for the 2nd??

The rule here is that if you miss your first dose and someone takes your spot that person gets the second appointment automatically. I did the American thing and bullshitted my way to a spot in line. Now questions were asked. I checked that I was a fat smoker when I'm really just a chubby former smoker.

I'm scheduled for Friday. Hoping for J&J, but I'll take whatever they'll give me.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

A bunch opened up here. It also helps that I ostensibly work with young people when I actually can work.

We have opened up in Boston and my wife knows how to hustle. Being a little chubby with a former tobacco habit have never served me so well.
