Probably not really a limitation, since it is an awfully long list of high risk conditions.

The bigger issue would be whether states pull pharmacists ability to administer it without a physician's prescription.[/quote]

Will also be interesting to see if insurance covers the vaccines. Some medical societies (eg AAP and ACOG have made recommendations that differ from FDA.[/quote]

I live in Massachusetts and just called my insurance company yesterday to get confirmation that the COVID and flu vaccines will be covered for me, even sans prescription.

I have a qualifying condition - which is so BS because being a human being above ground should be qualifying - but wasn’t sure it would be covered. It is. I heard a piece on NPR this morning that insurers were not going to drop coverage of the vaccines because they recognize it reduces illness severity, hospitalization and thus substantially reduces overall medical treatment costs.

Sadly I called my pharmacy and the vaccine is not yet available- they expect it within weeks. But I suppose the way this administration runs and given the firing of the CDC director and resignation of others in leadership there, maybe they are planning not to allow us to get them.

Honestly I wouldn’t put it past DJT and RFK Jr. that they would just like to shave off all the disabled and chronically ill and elderly and morbidly obese lives, even if it means some dead kids and pregnant women in the mix.

We are living in insanity. [/quote]
