   @William3rd @GottaLaff Ok cool. I suspected that must be the case.

   For me a pharmacy is a place where you just buy stuff, but apparently the UK is like the US too and pharmacies can often administer an injection.

   Here in Hong Kong you'd go to a clinic for a vaccination. Pharmacies that have anything other than soap, bandages, insecticide and over the counter medicines are generally physically part of a clinic or hospital.

   After the physician gives you a prescription you buy the drug from the physician's colleague basically. You pay both at the same counter.

     @clacke @GottaLaff Walgreens & CVS in Central VA do. I assume that is the case elsewhere.

     @GottaLaff @William3rd Do the pharmacies have staff that can perform the injection?

     @GottaLaff @Teri_Kanefield Did you try Kroger or whatever their brand is in CA? WalMart?

     @William3rd An article just broke that CVS does have them, and it turns out our pharmacy did get them today. But I can't schedule anything sooner than the Monday appointment I scheduled yesterday, which is fine.

     @William3rd I did try them. They didn't know when they'd get them. @Teri_Kanefield

     @GottaLaff

     Everything in San Luis Obispo was taken, so we're going to Santa Maria.

     I used this link:

     @Teri_Kanefield In Ventura County, CVS doesn't have them. I made an appointment for Monday, when hopefully, they'll get them in.

     Today Costco told me it'll be about 7-10 days for them.

     @Teri_Kanefield Where? I've scoured my area in Calif and can't find any yet.

     I have an appointment today for my updated COVID shot 🎉

     They are now available at all of our pharmacies.
