The wife and I both received our Covid 19 Moderna vaccine shot on Monday Jan 6.
The Amarillo TX operation was setup by FEMA and was really good for an operation for something like it setup by the Government.
The only question we were asked to enter for the shot was if you were 65 or older. The wife and I both fit that category and above.
We were in and out in less than an hour.
It was like clockwork.
In line maybe 10 to 15 minutes.
Sitting socially distanced filling out a front and back one page sheet with personal info etc. 10 to 15 minutes
Getting the shot card filled out with info with a person verifying the info on our drivers license. maybe 5 minutes
Getting the shot from the RN Nurse, who was very good and her filling in our cards with the info on the shot lot, date and time. maybe 5 minutes
She told us to keep the cards for the follow up shot in 28 days. She also said we should take a picture of the card and keep it in our phones as at some point we may need that or something like that to get on an airplane or to enter some government buildings.
Then out to the last room to self time a 15 minute time to see if there was any reaction to the shot and we were out.

I had a regularly scheduled physical scheduled on Wednesday Jan 8 and it took well over 2 hours in and out without any shots. So by the comparison it was easy to get the Covid shot.

The RN said in 7 to 10 days we should be 40% to 50% protected and after the second shot it would be 95%.
The Dr. on Wed. told me he had his first shot that morning and that in a week or so he should be protected to 90%. He also had the Moderna.
I am not sure who to believe on the protection.
Both indicated for now we still needed to wear a mask and socially distance if we were out and about.
