The lineup for a COVID-19 vaccine stretched half-way around the outside of the Flight Exec Centre in Dorchester, Ont. Sunday.
It was the first of 15 pop-up clinics in Middlesex County this month being put on by the Middlesex-London Paramedic Service (MLPS).
At the back of the line, Lori Taylor didn't mind waiting, and was thrilled she was able to just walk-up in her hometown, knowing she'd secure a booster shot.
"I teach kindergarten so most of my kids can't be," says Taylor, who teaches just a few metres from where she was waiting in line.
"I tried to get an appointment and I couldn't. To get my first shot it was well over 1,000 phone calls just to get an appointment. I live here in Dorchester, so this was super easy.”
Near the front of the line was Marcel Meyer, who considered himself lucky to wait just over an hour to get in the door.
