Is this for traditional only?

It's for whoever wants to use it. I put the group up. I'm not going to spend time running it. But it's there if anyone wants to connect.

Where did everyone get their COVID vaccines at other than pharmacy's? My insurance doesn't cover pharmacy and it's like $150 I can't find a medical provider that offers it. 
 

or if you know of anywhere thats it's less than $150?

Maybe call your local health dept. They may be able to direct you.

I think they should update this requirement. I am pretty sure they are only recommending it if you are over a certain age now with health conditions like the flu vaccine. I think Costco offers it, but it is pricey. I got mine as soon as it became available so it was covered

Savemart or CVS. I did savemart when I first got the shots and it was free. I got my booster at CVS a couple weeks ango and didn't pay anything so maybe call them before you go in? I got lucky because they had the booster when I went but sometimes they don't.

Thank you I didn't know it was provided at save art as well! Did you provide your insurance or was it free in general?

I didn't submit my insurance to either place and just got it done for free. I'm not sure if save mart stores will still have it but worth a shot, good luck!
