I'd be worried about a drive through vaccination too unless I was sent to a parking area near by to wait for a while.
Plus, how many of these people haven't eaten in hours? These people have been sitting in their cars all night long, waiting in line for it to finally open in the morning. How many of them didn't bring any food? You're not supposed to get a vaccine shot on an empty stomach as it may make you more prone to fainting. I'm better than you, but that doesn't mean you're not great!

This strain contains the same mutations found in earlier mutations that were more infectious, but less lethal with milder symptoms.
What's interesting about this strain is that it got somewhere around 20 mutations all at the same time.

The B.1.1.7 lineage carries a larger than usual number of virus genetic changes. The accrual of 14 lineage-specific amino acid replacements prior to its detection is, to date, unprecedented in the global virus genomic data for the COVID-19 pandemic. Most branches in the global phylogenetic tree of SARS-CoV-2 show no more than a few mutations and mutations accumulate at a relatively consistent rate over time. Estimates suggest that circulating SARS-CoV-2 lineages accumulate nucleotide mutations at a rate of about 1-2 mutations per month (Duchene et al. 2020).

Good old CNN... reporting the facts 9 months later...
