Message: [QUOTE="chj001, post: 3866617, member: 8206"] BTW, I'm not sure, but I think my sister, her husband and I may have jumped the gun on getting the vaccine. We are all in the 65+ group and in early January I believe they announced that the age had been lowered to include 65+ so we jumped on it and made our appointments. However, sometime after we made our appointments, we read that the lowering to 65+ was actually for some future date. We were worried that when my brother-in-law went for his 1st shot around Jan 20, the week before my sister and me, that he would be turned away, but that never happened. My sister and I crossed our fingers when we went for our shots a week later, but nobody raised an issue about it. We were scheduled to get our shots 10 minutes apart. We arrived 25 minutes early, but there was no line so they took us anyway. By the time the post-shot 15 minute waiting period had expired, it was still before my appointment time. We were just happy to get the shots. And this coming Tues will mark the 14th day following our second shot. Update: I just looked it up. Apparently the date on which 65+ officially became eligible for the vaccine in CT was Feb 11. We got shot #1 on Jan 25, shot #2 on Feb 16. Don't know why we weren't blocked from signing up in the first place or turned away at the door when we arrived for the first shot. I suppose they just want to vaccinate as many people as possible. They had available doses and we had available arms. [/QUOTE]
