We got the new Covid Booster today along with Flu shots. [View all]

I went to pick up husband’s prescription at Walgreens. While there I asked when the new booster would be available and they said they got it today and asked if I wanted one. I said yes! Plus I’d love to get my husband and sister in. It took a few minutes but the pharmacy tech set up the appointments for ‘later that day’ and gave me paperwork for the 3 of us. I drove home, filled out the paperwork (2 mins per person) and back we went.

Husband has COPD so I’m thrilled to get the new booster so quickly along with flu shot.
