The entire political establishment is in agreement on the need to enforce the pro-corporate policy of “forever COVID,” in which the working class and broad layers of society as a whole are condemned to unending waves of mass infection, death and debilitation with Long COVID.
I went to a CVS and received both for free. I wasn’t even asked about insurance.
What?! I went to CVS for my flu shot and had to pay $70 - the Covid booster was $120 or something like that so I ended up skipping it (I’m also uninsured).
Did I just get unlucky?
Really? Dang, I don’t live in a blue state even. I’m sorry you had to do that 🙁 I do live in a particularly red area, in the past I have gotten the covid vaccine earlier than I was supposed to for my age group because nobody was going and they needed to use it.
I live in New York, so that’s probably why. Shame :( enjoy the covid protection!
Did they likely have your insurance on file? I know that when I hit the pharmacy they never need to ask. Even for doctors offices, I’ve found different offices being different levels of worried. Some want to see my card every time, some once a year, and some seem content to try to file and only bother me if that fails later.
