CORONA Got harassed at my local Walmart pharmacy.

Neither here nor there.
A couple of weeks ago, we had a weird experience at WM. An employee was walking around the store asking random people if they'd be interested in a covid shot.

That's because they've already paid for the shots, and they have a short shelf life. State of Iowa is refusing any more vaccines because there's no interest from the public here in getting the shot, according to the news at noon today.

That happened to me at my grocery store. Let me explain why...

There are 6 doses per vial of vaccine. They must be used within 3 hours. If the pharmacy experiences a "no show" appointment, they scurry through the store looking for someone to use that dose. Bad form to waste a dose!

Answer a question with a question.
Have you had your Covid shot?
Why would ask me that?
Well, because whatever . . .
Mmmmm or Ohhhh and let it drop.

If at WM, I might have asked them if you want to discuss my personal private medical history, should you not be doing it in the consultation room?

ETA: Why would ask me that? with a disparaging look can oftentimes really shut up a nosy person. The longer they go on, the worse they look.

I do not think that them nicely asking if you want a free shot is bad, thats not demanding that you get it. or asking if you have had it

anyway. for me, I wouldnt get mad at that, but asking if you have had your shot is none of there business.

Got it from, a now former, friend yesterday. He informed me in no uncertain terms that it was because of people like me we can't get back to normal. I just laughed and informed him that it was my choice and I'm allergic to several of the ingredients in the vaccine.

This from someone who has gotten so paranoid he will only go to Dr.'s visits and has his groceries delivered. He just can't understand how I never let any of this slow me down the entire time - I go wherever my little heart desires and not going to stop.

So, the harassment has begun........

So. I go to pick up some meds at the pharmacy and the tech starts grilling me about if I had my covid vax. I think when I replied No and NO I may have came off as hostile lol. Anybody else starting to get harassed?
We got ask that early on, and my husband said no and we won't be.
