When I tried to use the link it was already full, no appointments open. Turns out that people shared the link and a ton of people not yet eligible made appointments.

It ended up FUBAR, with them checking IDs at the entrance and sending anyone under 65 away. Some of the ones sent away had valid appointment as first responders, teachers, etc.

What a mess.
