Adventures in vaccination, privatized care edition

[edschweppe]

I (finally) got my fourth COVID booster today, at the not-quite-so-local CVS that I got my previous shot at. As-you-may-remember-Bob, I tried to get it almost three weeks ago, only to be foiled by my insurance carrier not having gotten their act sufficiently together to update their coverage files to include the current shots. Apparently, letting the private sector handle vaccinations (rather than the Federal government driving things) doesn't necessarily mean smooth rollouts. Who knew?

This time around, things went swimmingly; in, out, no drama. One new development: the old fifteen minute wait to see if you have a horrible reaction is no longer mandatory; I haven't had a bad reaction yet, so I didn't bother waiting around.
