Of course there are no lines. Doctors are not allowed to give out the vaccine. General population will get the vaccines in a few months.

"Here, and across most of Europe, vaccine to protect against the pandemic flu is mostly given by invitation only to those at highest risk for flu complications."

"In the United Kingdom, the general population will be offered the shot after priority groups have been taken care of, probably in about two months. For now, only children with health problems are a priority; healthy children are not."

The people waiting in lines in the US get the vaccine that day. In Europe the line is two months long.

Our inept government can't even manage flu shots and they want to take over the entire health care system?

How anyone can support them is beyond me.
