It took many attempts to get an appointment, but I finally succeeded at the end of February. I thought I would get an appointment at Citi Field which is a mega site, but I got my two appointments at Walgreens. My first appointment for the Moderna vaccine was at the Walgreens in downtown Flushing which is a 20-minute walk for me. I arrived at 2 PM and got my shot at 2:25 as my appointment was for 2:30. The only problem was that I had a slight fever for a few hours the next day.
My second dose was scheduled for today at 2:30 at Walgreens in College Point which was a 10-minute drive away. I received my shot at 2:20 PM. I must admire Walgreens for its efficiency.
I have read that if 70-90% of the population is vaccinated there will be herd immunity. Hopefully, this will mean a return to normalcy with everything open at full capacity with no masks or social distancing. Unfortunately, there is a group called Anti-Vaxxers who refuse to be vaccinated. Hopefully, they are a very tiny minority.
