Regarding people not showing up for appointments--I wonder if most of them are folks who where able to get an appointment somewhere else closer to home or earlier and just did not cancel the other appointment. One issue here is that it is difficult sometime to cancel an appointment --no easy way to do that and the phone lines are tied up.
Yeah, I wondered about that this morning when I went for my second shot. Appointment was at 11, I showed up at 10:30 and they took me right away. I was out before 11. The location (Sedalia, MO) was about an hour from my home near KC but I took it because they were the first to call me. After that many of the other (far more convenient) places where I'd signed up sent me opportunities for appointments. Most provided no easy way to tell them I didn't need an appointment. One of the workers in Sedalia said she'd seen a large number of people from the KC area. I wonder if others booked an appointment in Sedalia and then abandoned it in favor of one closer to home.
