My guess is that they aren't sure how many shots are going to be available until the last minute and since they need special refrigeration the mobile drive through sites are opening slots the night before. I booked our slots around 4 on Friday afternoon. They had about 200 shots available and slots were gone in 15 minutes. I booked myself and my husband and went back on to grab one for a friend and they were gone in a blink. The whole process of having to go from location to location to find an appointment is really stupid. You would think there would be an Ap for that....

Now I have to worry about booking an appointment for our second shots because they aren't booking those out yet.....Sigh

At least the process has started for us

Good luck and keep trying. I've heard some people have luck going in at midnight. I've also heard Monday and Tuesdays are the best times to look. IDK I spent almost 6 hours a day at random times looking. Join your local facebook groups especially if there is a Covid group. That's how I found mine. A kind person posted a link that my site opened up and I was on at the right time to get in on her link.
