It was a little different setup when I returned to the Civic Center today for my second shot. The 15-minute waiting area had expanded and was right up front, facing me as I walked in. There were more people in the room because there was now an added line for the 1-shot Johnson & Johnson vaccine and all vaccination stations were now against the back wall.
After dittoing the first visit's paperwork, I was told to go to the back right corner. Somebody else put me in the back left corner where I shot:
1. Stitch #1
2. I then noticed I was next on the J&J line, whose station was closest to me and that the Moderna-labled stations were furthest from me. I brought this to the attention of someone, who told me to go across the room to the Moderna line - in the same back right corner I was told to go to in the first place. This was the only - and very minor - misstep in my two visits there.
3, 4. I was greeted by a very nice healthcare worker and explained to her that I needed someone to photograph my vaccination. "No problem", as she went to get someone. While she was gone, I photographed some vaccine bottles and loaded syringes. I assume that the bottom (closest) syringe was for me.
5. The shot of the shot. The young lady who took the photo said she made sure to include the shirt. The woman administering the shot jokingly said she'd keep injecting me with vaccine until we got the right photo. Fortunately, it only took one shot by each of them.
6. On to the 15-minute waiting area. While I was waiting, one of the healthcare workers asked me where I got the shirt because she HAD to get one for her husband. Before I left, I took a 4-image photo stitch of the room. The people standing by the far left wall are on the Moderna line. The man on the far right is on the 1-shot J&J line.
7. Speaking of the 1-shot J&J vaccine, the Health Department has just posted a notice that they have appointments open for that vaccine next Tuesday, April 13. If you haven't gotten your shot(s) yet, jump on this one-and-done opportunity quickly!
