Covid 19 immunizations
All eligible VA members can get set up at the VA for their shots - it is my understanding that even if not over 65 an appointment can be made SO DO IT
Other sites are available for the shots, notably UCD, and at some future date, CVS, Walmart, Walgreens...and others
The important thing is to get the shots, regardless of location
