At an immunization clinic, there is one scheduled appointment every five minutes starting at noon. Each patient arrives exactly at the scheduled time, spends 10 minutes in the lobby doing paperwork, then five minutes out of the lobby getting shots, and finally 20 minutes in the lobby to be sure there is no adverse reaction. How many patients are in the lobby at 12:34 p.m.?
