Funny COVID–19 vaccine story

 I tried to set up myself for a booster shot. We had our 2nd dose June 9th.They opened it up to 70+ citizens, and booked JB into a clinic at Perth Legion, after a certain number of days. I booked myself, then read the fine print, only 70+ folks. Back to square one. 

In the meantime, they've added 5 – 18-year-olds to the roster. Clinics abound. 

The news was leaked, they were opening it up to 50+. Back to the website. It's a portal Pomelo, another for-profit, I bet, providing the service. 

JB insisted I book anyway, just to get a slot, as they were opening up. The announcement came down, people 50+ can book as of Dec. 13th. I was booked in Dec. 11th. They have been saying that you will be turned away if you aren't certified. The email has a handy link where you can cancel. I cancelled.

Please ensure you are eligible for your vaccine. Please see COVID-19 Protection & Vaccines - Leeds, Grenville and Lanark District Health Unit  for more details. 

My appointment info arrived in email. Can you read the fine print? Only kids for this clinic. 


I found the list of local sites and dates. There were zero appointments in Perth, by this time.


I had to resort to Smiths Falls. I didn't realize both Dec. 18 and 30 were for kids until I looked it up. It didn't say so on the booking portal. Not until they send the email. You have to open this up on another page: list of local sites. Dec. 21 began at 16:45, and I won't drive in the dark. We had another doe killed on the highway yesterday afternoon, just as I came home from my hair appointment.


I mistakenly made it for Dec. 30th. Back again to the portal. Dec. 21st was booked up. I give up, for now. It's important the kdsi get their vaccines. I shall be patient.


In the meantime, we are still wrestling with 💰Canada Revenue Agency😓, as well as the bank.
