I find this hard to believe. I don't know anyone here in Lisbon who has been vaccinated. What we see are scenes like this:
"In areas around Lisbon over the weekend hundreds of people carrying text messages telling them they had appointments for their first shots turned up at the doors of vaccination centres that were firmly closed."
Portugal has moved back firmly in the 2nd World.
