COVID-19 Vaccine is available

We were in the Walmart Grocery Store in Santa Rita, NO LINES, WALK-INS WELCOME!

I was shopping at the Walmart Grocery Store yesterday (Friday) about 3pm. I walked by the pharmacy department and there is a big sign “COVID-19 Vacines – WALK-INS Welcome”, but there was no one there getting shots, no lines. I said to the person at the desk, “Wow, you don’t have any lines”, she replied no, that they are not busy, and I said “That’s terrible”, to which she just replied “yes”.

Not sure if it is busier on the weekends, but fellow residents, if you’re looking for a place to get the vaccinations, seems that this would be a good option, and I suppose other drugstores might have the same situation, completely free.

For my wife and I, getting the shots was “liberating”, and some of our kids and grandkids visited two weeks later.

IF YOU HAVEN’T BEEN VACINATED AND DON’T OBJECT TO IT, PLEASE DON’T DELAY, THE MORE WE CAN GET VACINATED THE SOONER WE’LL GET OUT OF THIS PANDEMIC AND BE ABLE TO LIVE OUR LIVES NORMALLY.

They are giving the Moderna vaccine, which is the same that my wife and I had, I had no reactions, my wife got sick for one day, then was fine.
