I was picking up an Rx. I asked about vaccination and was told they have lots of openings and have been tossing vials. I live in the reddest congressional district in the state and adjacent to the two lowest vaccinated counties in the state.

We're days away from begging people in this country. We're vaccinating rapidly but it's about to end.

Is Walgreen's doing anything to tell people of the availability?
(I don't think so..another minus for the lumbering corporation)

The local Walgreens just started offering one of the vaccines, so many may not have noticed yet. I don''t happen to use that pharmacy, the local CVS is closer and open 24 hours.

I seriously doubt anyone is incentivized to let anyone know vials will be thrown away. They’re sure to take a solid 5-10 minutes upfront ensuring they get reimbursed for the jab, tho.

Only in America…
Land of the free, home of the brave, and the kings of wastefulness as the world starves. Anyone still wonder why people in poorer countries might just hate the USA? Anyone still wonder why so many might want to risk their lives just to get thrown into a lockup here?

The could probably contact radio and TV stations and get a PSA mention that they have vaccinations available. It could even be done on a store by store basis from an 'anonymous tip' if corporate sources don't give their blessing. |
