Quebecers waiting hours in the cold to get vaccinated against COVID-19

Quebecers are standing in line for hours -- sometimes outside in the cold -- as they wait to get vaccinated against COVID-19.

Sunday, Wendy Davies says she took her 81-year-old husband, Paul Gallant, to the Gerry Robertson Community Centre in Montreal's Pierrefonds-Roxboro borough to get his booster shot.

They stood outside waiting for two hours.

"The security and staff are overwhelmed," she said. "This is ridiculous and the Quebec government and public deserve to be made aware of how inefficiently Clic Santé is at booking appointments in facilities that do have not indoor waiting areas."

Davies says her husband's appointment was scheduled at 4:30 p.m., but he did not receive his vaccine until 6:45 p.m.
