10. I got mine when I got my first COVID booster

Nov 2022

The local pharmacy where I originally got the vaccine was booked, so I just walked in at Wal-Mart. And without me asking the pharmacist told me after checking my coverage that it would be fully covered by my insurance, so did I want it? I went for it and had no troubles. The pharmacist even made a point of letting me know how stupidly expensive it would be if my insurance wasn't paying for it. But I guess they'd rather pay for the vaccine than the results of not having it and getting shingles, which I guess says something about getting shingles.
