Title: Want a COVID vaccine? How long are you willing to wait??

Want a vaccine reservation in South Korea? Try waiting 111 hours.

SEOUL — When South Koreans logged on to a government website this month to book COVID-19 vaccine appointments, a pop-up window told them there was “just a bit” of a delay.

“There are 401,032 people waiting in front of you,” read one of the messages that exasperated South Koreans captured in screenshots and shared online. “Your expected waiting time: 111 hours, 23 minutes and 52 seconds.”

I had to wait for my vaccination about 5 minutes. I wonder what the nurses were doing.   ;D
