Walmart and Sam’s Club announced on Tuesday that pharmacy locations nationwide will begin administering walk-up COVID-19 vaccines in addition to pre-scheduled appointments. Vaccine recipients do not have to be a member of Sam’s Club to get the shot, according to a news release.

The company, which has more than 5,100 pharmacy locations, also announced an initiative to combat vaccine hesitancy.

Hopefully unwanted, excess vaccine is being shipped to India before it expires.

I have a friend that got the Phizer COVID shot and has felt sick ever since then. I talked to her this morning and she was getting an ultrasound on her Thyroid. It is not cancerous, but she will have to get checked by her doctor until it normalizes.

Walk-in covid vaccine is pretty much the case throughout Florida now.

On April 5, 2021 anyone in Florida could get the vaccine. In the week ending April 12th more than 950,000 got vaccinated.

In the latest week ending May 3 only 350,000 got vaccinated.

Not much interest in getting vaccinated in Florida.

Got my Vaccination at the local Walmart last week, easy peasy.

I had an appointment but I assumed there would be a bunch of people there doing the same. Nope, just me.

Got the Shot, scheduled my follow up second Shot, waited for 15 Minutes to be sure I had no reaction and left.

I had absolutely no reaction to it, not even a sore Arm.

Saw my Oncologist a few weeks ago to be sure I should get the Vaccination. Since I have Leukemia, I wasn’t going to get it until he recommended it.

They are available if anyone wants the jab.

My wife & I got ours 3-4 months ago. The County was providing
innoculations for seniors. Call, set an appointment time, show up
stick you arm out the window and get the needle. Pull up to a spot
and wait 15 minutes to make sure all is well then you can leave.

I’m assuming it was outside so you didn’t have to go in. Lots
of room for cars to get in line, drive thru and wait the 15 mins.

Nope, it was inside at the Pharmacy.

They have a Room next to the Pharmacy. The Gal that gave me the Shot was great. Didn’t even feel the Needle.

Hmm... If they want people to vote, screw mail-in voting, put the polling stations at these stores. They culdn’t get to the polls because of Covid but they never missed Saturday and Sunday at Sam’s.

Awesome rotisserie chicken at Sam’s, btw. 4-pack of large chicken breasts for $3.98? Can’t beat it.

They already have it set up at our nearest rural MO walmart. It’s being ignored just like the masks required signs and arrows on the floor were that they finally got rid of due to that. They’ve got 6 chairs set up to sit in for 20 minutes after the jab. I expect they’ll see near zero usage and then they’ll get rid of them and the jab service too.

People go there for cheap prices. No one’s going to get a jab at walmart to save money, it’s free everywhere. You can get them free elsewhere, administered in a more private and professional setting.

“Hopefully unwanted, excess vaccine is being shipped to India before it expires.”

Illegitimate Biden admin couldn’t do anything competent or rational.

I also LOVE the way the MSM spins the narrative.
First they were saying “there needs to be vaccine equity” and blamed whites for getting all the vaccines, leaving very little available for people of color.

Then they said “People of color don’t have access to the vaccines.” So they started giving the vaccines in churches and even mobile clinics in some neighborhoods.

Now, they want to say “Republicans are refusing to get the shots! They’ve made it political!”

And while there are a LOT of white folks refusing to get the shot, there are a whole lot of black Democrats refusing to get it as well.

Its very simple. People only want what is scarce.

If they want people of color to get the vax, all they gotta do is put out some fake news saying “The shot is only available in wealthy white neighborhoods now.”

They need to repeat it over and over and get all indignant about it. People will be stampeding into those neighborhoods to get the shot. (the MSM should easily be on board with doing this since they love to report big fat racist lies).

Or they could say “Supplies are running low. Vaccination priority is being given to people crossing our southern border.”

Heck, that might be believable because they are being given educational priority.

Or they could also send about 50 million doses to India so that there really IS a shortage here, thus making people more interested in getting what is not available.

How long before they start paying people to get the shot?

Outside of the politicians I wonder how much they are making from big pharma.
