Lineups for AstraZeneca started at 4 a.m. in Montreal

After we were told last week that the vaccination progress in Montreal was underwhelming, with virtually no lineups at the walk-in vaccination centres, it seems that opening up the AstraZeneca vaccine to people 45+ today has had a positive effect. According to a report, which was retweeted by Christian Dubé, a lineup to get vaccinated at the Olympic Stadium with no appointment formed this morning at 4:15 a.m. (almost four hours before the site opened). The photo below was taken at 5:45 a.m.
