VACCINE: Continuity should be easier

It took six phone calls, including one disconnect, to make an appointment for my overdue second booster vaccine. The agent told me this location only had the Moderna vaccine. That did not make sense to me, as my three previous shots were from there, my closest pharmacy, and they were all Pfizer. The agent explained each location stocks only one brand. I protested; it should be the same brand, not change during the pandemic.

Ultimately, I was given an appointment at a different location further away. This should be easier. Many seniors like myself have transportation issues and we are trying, through vaccinations and masking appropriately, to keep ourselves and the general public safe.
