And nobody with machine guns pushing you thru the line. I also got mine at a local pharmacy the first day I could. I was having a drink and the bartender told me they got vaccine next door. I said keep my tab open I'll be right back. 5 minutes in and out.

Maybe you got in and out easy because hundreds of thousands of people got theirs at Javits & other mass vax sites.

Why am i being downvoted for saying i had an easy time getting the vaccine at a pharmacy? :o

I dunno I didn't downvote you. Maybe people think you're implying we didn't need Javits. At the time we definitely needed anything that would get more vaccines out there. Personally I waited until I could get it in my neighborhood which was only a few days after my age bracket opened up.

Probably members of the Javits family.
