Last week I could get flu and Prevnar (pneumonia) vax during my annual physical but not COVID in Cal. Nurse said that there was so much in flux that they don’t know what to do at this point.

So I just made an appointment online to get it at a CVS inside a Target where I’ve received all my COVID boosters. It’s always been a breeze at that location. I’m not 65 which is the threshold for the new vax they offer but they let me make the appointment. We’ll see what happens when I get there. I have a feeling it won’t be a problem.
