Monkeypox vaccines are in high demand in New York City. So much so that when the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene announced a limited amount of appointments at 1 p.m. Tuesday, the online scheduling website crashed within minutes. It acknowledged the issue on Twitter at 1:29 pm, leading to an online uproar about the lack of careful planning.

The department tweeted at 4:12 pm that all appointments have been booked, and it will work to create a “stable appointment infrastructure” for future rollouts.
