Fairfax Clinic this weekend for 6-36mo and pregnant women

[Anonymous]

As of noon, parking was available and total wait time is about 90 minutes. Not too shabby.

Call the CDC police!!

Call up the militia. Seal the border!

We went this morning at about 8:30, and there was a line of traffic down Forum Drive waiting for parking. My DH and I laughed and said, "Yeah,right" and went to Wegman's instead.

I guess we're bad parents, but there is no way I would wait 4-6 hours for this vax. It's not the bubonic plague! My son is waking up from his nap, maybe we'll go back this afternoon.

I don't blame you for leaving, but it was nowhere near a 4-6 hour wait. Your hyperbole, while amusing, is not helpful.

also got there around 12 and were out in 1.5 hours. It was very well organized. Easy wait, line constantly moving tons of helpers around. Looked like only a 30 minute wait when we left.

Right now there is no wait, they have plenty of vaccines and are basically looking for people to take the stuff....

I got out of my car to walk up at 1:15-- I was back in my car at 1:45. 30 minutes and basically it is just all walking. They have you snaking through the building. NO line and VERY WELL organized. I am 27 weeks pregnant and on modified bed rest. I was so happy to get in and out. I feel sorry for those of you that waited 4+ hours and the 2 Dads I saw on the new this AM that camped out last night. If anyone is thinking of going- head up now!

Is it still just for pregnant women and thhose under 2?

[Anonymous]

PP Post here-meant to say it is still only for pregnant women and those under 3?

[Anonymous]

Yes, it is still just for pregnant women and those under 3. They will not be expanding that today.

11:31 posted that she got in line at 6 AM and didn't get out until 10:30 AM. How exactly is this hyperbole?

Anyway, we just got back, and there is no line. We were out in about 20 minutes, and 15 of those were spent in the post-vax observation room.

I don't think it is FAIR to count the time BEFORE the doors were open (9:00am). Yes, I got there at 6:30 and waited until 9:00 am to START moving, but after that, only 1hour and half to get all done. I think it was pretty reasonable, dont' you?
