WNU editor: This so symbolizes how bureaucratized Europe has become, and one of the many reasons why Europe's vaccination roll-out has been a disaster.
For a different perspective this is what I had to go through.
I live in Montreal, Canada. In the case of my 94 year-old mother all that I had to do was book an appointment online. Show up at the appointed time and place. Present her medical identification card to prove who she is. She was then registered into the system that she is there, and what shot she will receiving. Another person then asked her some basic questions on her health (that took about 2 minutes), and then she received a confirmation on when is her second shot (which was also emailed and texted to me immediately). She then received her first shot. Waited 15 minutes for any severe reaction. And we then went home. The entire process at the vaccination center took about 25 minutes. It could have been faster, but my mother is a slow walker (she is after-all 94 years old)
